Anachronisms of an Island

The Living Layers of Cyprus

Cyprus is a place where time rarely moves in a straight line. Ancient temples stand beside glass towers, donkey carts cross paths with luxury cars, and centuries-old olive trees overlook neon-lit cafés.  This photo log invites viewers on a visual journey through Cyprus, a land where past and present intertwine in unexpected ways. Through its streets, landscapes, and daily life, the island reveals idiosyncratic traces of ancient civilizations, colonial legacies, and modern influences coexisting in surprising harmony.  

Each image captures a glimpse of how Cypriot life and culture refuses to be confined by time: how tradition endures amid progress, and how modern life still carries echoes of the island’s deep and layered heritage.
