Who says bananas can only thrive in tropical and subtropical climates? In Cyprus, the regions of Kissonerga and Pegeia in the Pafos district provide an ideal subtropical environment for banana cultivation. This year, Kissonerga is set to celebrate its prized fruit in style with the exciting Banana Festival. This vibrant event promises delightful cultural experiences with walks to the nearby archaeological sites of Mosfilia and Skalia, banana plantations and the ruins of the Saints Zinaida and Filonilli church.
