Pano Amiantos (Greek:Πάνω Αμίαντος,Turkish:Yukarı Amyanto) is a village in theLimassol District ofCyprus, located 7 km southwest ofKyperounta. Formerly the village was the site of a largeasbestos mine.
When the mine closed the enormous workings were left as a blot on the landscape of the Troodos. There is now a project under way for the replanting of the workings which should eventually restore the landscape to its former beauty, if not its former shape.
