Cyprus from space really looks a bit like a flounder, as pilots like to repeat.

Russian cosmonaut Anton Shkaplerov shared a photo of the island taken from the International Space Station.

“The island of Cyprus, located in The Mediterranean Sea is a real treasure trove of ancient cultural monuments. What is not here – and antediluvian catacombs, and the ruins of Roman palaces, and the richest heritage of ancient Greece …” he wrote.

Cyprus is the third largest and third most populous island in the world. The Mediterranean Sea. Located in the eastern part of the Mediterranean, geographically belongs to Asia. Most of the island is occupied by mountains.
