Miliou is one of the villages involved in the Laona Project, a non-profit organisation established to implement rural regeneration and ecotourism and to help introduce the concept of agrotourism to Cyprus. Although Miliou's limestone houses are examples of traditional rural architecture, more have been restored in the traditional Cypriot style through the Laona Project.
