Platanisteia ({{langx|el|Πλατανίστεια}}, {{langx|tr|Çamlıca}}) is a village in the Limassol District of Cyprus, located 6 km north of Pissouri. Prior to 1960, the village was inhabited almost exclusively by Turkish Cypriots. {{cite web |url=http://www.kypros-cyprus.com/maps/1960.jpg |title=Archived copy |access-date=2009-06-14 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20071028223100/http://www.kypros-cyprus.com/maps/1960.jpg |archive-date=2007-10-28 }}

The village is now the home to the Hambis Printmaking Centre, an arts centre for artist-printmakers and museum of printmakers' works, founded by the Cypriot artist Hambis Tsangaris in 2008.Μιχaλης Μιχαηλιδης ,'Χαμπής Τσαγγάρης: «Εμπήκετε πκιό βαθκειά στην καρκιάν μου!»' in City Free Press (Cyprus newspaper), 1 February 2015
