The Museum of Underwater Sculptures officially opened on 1 August at Agia Napa, Cyprus.

British acclaimed sculptor Jason de Caires Taylor, a representative of the eco-art movement, has created the 93 underwater sculptures, which have enthralled visitors.

The installation was made to resemble a path through a dense underwater forest, with artworks designed to attract marine life so that the artworks change and develop organically.
