The Paphos Region Tourism Development and Promotion Company, continuing its efforts to upgrade the tourist experience and implement actions that contribute to the transformation of the Paphos district into a smart destination, is currently in progress to upgrade the experience through the use of technological tools and digitization of information.
As pointed out by the Director of ETAP, Nassos Hadjigeorgiou, the smart application for the promotion of the Myth of Aphrodite is soon completed, which includes all the regions, points and elements associated with the myth, with augmented reality technology, films, photographic material and an audio tour.
"The preparation of material and the installation of additional smart signs in various areas of the province is underway, providing visitors with innovative, rich, intelligent and interactive information," he said. ''At the same time, there is in the final stage presentation of several points of interest through a 360 degree tour, an audio tour in five languages, videos, photographic material and more.''
In the coming weeks, the upgrade of the material of the touch screens and the smart application at the Archaeological Park of Kato Paphos is completed, while weather permitting will continue to take underwater shots for better presentation of the diving points of the province.
Such interventions, said Mr. Hadjigeorgiou, will take place throughout the year, both in the municipalities of the province, as well as in several communities that offer unique experiences and important points of interest.
The upgrading of technologies is particularly necessary for the future course of Paphos as a quality destination, concluded the director of ETAP, since more and more visitors are looking for the use of technology in tourism.
