The 7 Best Gardens in Cyprus, Cyprus

CyHerbia gardens and nature park is situated in the village of Avgorou, and includes a beautifully landscaped herb garden, laid out into 9 different themes, a lavender meditation labyrinth, a woodland area with the endemic trees and shrubs of Cyprus, and the first and only maze (2000 sq.m.) of the island. On site visitors can witness the extraction of essential oil. There is a shop with our own organic herbal products and a tea room overlooking the gardens, where light lunches, cakes and a large selection of teas are prepared fresh every day.

Pano Akourdaleia herb garden is the home to resident herbalist Caroline Evans and her business Heaven on Earth Herbals. Originally the old village school house and playground, the building and garden was fixed by the Laona project using a European grant in the early to mid 1990's, although since then it was not looked after as was intended. The garden has the same name as the small church across the road called 'Chrysseleoussa' literally meaning Golden Gift of which it now is to the village as Herbalist Caroline Evans has revived and replanted the herb garden and brought the life back to the village. Nowadays a small coffeeshop serves herbal teas, healthy drinks and gluten free cakes is onsite of the beautiful herb garden along with a working apothecary and herb shop. Caroline is on hand to answer your health needs and provide full consultations. These days workshops learning about your body, herbal teas and coffee mornings are run as well as group tours and the hugely successful and enjoyable monthly Farmers Market (1st sunday). Summer opening hours (1st April-31st Oct) Tuesdays until Sundays 10am-5pm and Winter opening hours (1st Nov-31st March) Wednesdays-Sundays 9am-4pm.
