Famagusta Area Of Cyprus The Hidden Resorts

Originally the town of Famagusta itself would have lain at the heart of the district but alas it now lies in total dereliction. In fact it has been labeled a ghost town and not without good reason. In 1974 Turkey invaded Northern Cyprus and Famagusta town was where they halted that invasion. The once proud holiday resort portion of the town now lies partly enclosed within the buffer zone between the North and South. This

area is patrolled by a United Nations peace keeping force and the larger part of Famagusta resort is now totally inaccessible.
