[2] Located next to Lake Evretos, Filousa Chrysochous is adjacent to the village of Tremithousa of Paphos and is one of the small communities of the island, but it has many of the natural beauties of the Cypriot countryside.

The nearby town of Polis Chrysochou is the main administration, school and medical centre for the village.

According to legend, the village acquired its name from two trees that grew by the town square.

Filousa Village is spread along a main road, with a few narrow streets leading off.

Filousa Village has magnificent views, and has managed to keep its traditional architecture and charm.
