Cyprus

Northern Cyprus offers a number of attractive places that are definitely worth a visit. Whether you are a lover of history, nature or beautiful beaches, this part of the island has something for everyone.

Famagusta will enchant you not only with its medieval walls but also with the abandoned town of Varosha. Once a bustling resort, it is now a ghost town, a symbol of the conflict between Greeks and Turks after the 1974 invasion. Its empty buildings and streets stand in contrast to magnificent monuments such as the gothic Lala Mustafa Pasha Mosque and the Othello Tower.

Even though Nicosia is pretty much off the beaten track from the main tourist routes, it's definitely worth a visit. Nicosia is the capital and largest city of Cyprus, and its uniqueness lies in the fact that it is divided into two parts: the Greek and the Turkish.

Alagadi Turtle Beach is a beautiful beach consisting of two large bays in northern Cyprus. Especially this beach was the main reason why we decided to visit North Cyprus.
