I lived as a British child along this street and visited these hotels - you cannot imagine how painful it is to see all this waste - and to hear of all the stupidity that caused it. A lot of people (both Greek and Turkish but Cypriot) lived here - hope you don't have their 'souvenirs' - as they had to leave because of politics - vvvvvvery sad.

Yes such a disgrace, Like the yacht club built upon Turkish Land in Larnaca.

I remember the very first time we wached " War & Peace "with all my brothers and sister.I will never forget it.What a pity.

Beware of the TSUNAMI.Don´t stay so next to the see.If I was there, I coudn´t sleep by night.A huge monster is hidden under de blue waters of th sea.Go away the sons of Attila before its too late.Go back to Anatolia , where you belong.

Don´t you think that it´s time to return all these places to their real owners? What are the Turkish ocupation authorities are waiting for.You don´t belong these sites, you don´t understand them and you can not feel them.May be 300 years later thinks can be change.As it happened once.History is repeated.We can wait.

Technical high School of Famagusta

А что с этим городом стало???

looking for other students who were at the Parartima Arrenou, (B) in Nea Smirni, near the Old Turkish Famagusta.. There were two years there - Year 1 and Year 2.

And it continues to be a mosque which represents the freedom obtained by the Turks for their republic.

once the pride of varosha, now just a sad reminder of the crazy days of 1974...

turkish cypriots are quite happy that turkish army is in the island. If I wasn't a turkish cypriot I would shut up about other people and countries' choices. this area (varosha) is claimed as a military zone since 1974.

if I was turkish cypriot, i would be utterly disgusted by this place. While 40,000 people who are the legal inhabitants of this city are barred from entering it and going home after three-four decades, and an entire city lays to waste and is a ghost town, turkish soldiers can go sunbaking amongst the ghost hotels and homes. disgusting and sad. come on, turkish cypriots, stand up and make a sound!

Formerly known as the "Ideal"

Statue of Queen Victoria visible in the centre. There used to be many peacocks here.

The British missionaries served very nice Scottish pancakes here in the cafe, before 1974.
