The Neighborhood:
Pano Platres is a historic and charming hill resort, mentioned among the 119 villages of the Limassol district dating back to the Lusignan Era (12th–15th century) and the Venetian Era (15th–16th century). Located just 5 km from Troodos, it offers a variety of services, restaurants, bars, cafés, grocery shops, and traditional souvenir stores.
The name Pano Platres (“Upper Plátres”) was adopted in recent years to distinguish it from the nearby village of Tornarides, now called Kato Platres (“Lower Plátres”), yet locals and visitors alike still refer to it simply as Platres.
Seasons & Experiences
Pano Platres offers two distinct experiences depending on the time of year. From May to late September, especially on weekends and during August, the village comes alive with visitors enjoying nature, open-air dining, and lively local culture. From October to late April, the area becomes a peaceful retreat, ideal for those seeking tranquillity, quiet mountain walks, and the beauty of nature in its full glory. While some restaurants and a supermarket remain open, the focus is on serenity and relaxation.
