The island nation of Cyprus is located in the eastern Mediterranean Sea, just to the south of Turkey. With pristine beaches, ancient ruins, dramatic mountains, and year-round sunshine, it’s a great destination for relaxing and exploring. Above all, Cyprus is steeped in history and culture, enjoying a mix of Greek, Turkish, and British influences. Since 1974, the island has been divided into a Greek Cypriot south and a Turkish Cypriot north. In this video, we’ll highlight 15 of the most beautiful and interesting places to visit in the country.

Fabulous video made with love thank you ❤
🤍🧡💚🇨🇾
I confess I've not watched all of this video but I have been to cyprus and was appalled at the amount of litter there. Worst along a beach front where it became clear the authorities just didn't care.
The northern side of Cyprus is the occupied side , not the Turkish Republic of Cyprus.
It is only recognised by turkey
Loved this video, I am flying into Larnaca and getting a rental going to stay at ayia napa but the clinic I am using is in famagusta can you take rental car there? Or have to take bus?
Correction: Famagusta is located in the Turkish Cypriot-administered portion of northern Cyprus. We stated it is part of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyrpus, however, this is only recognized by Turkey, and its territory is considered by all other states to be part of the Republic of Cyprus.
Thank you for this helpful video!
Your video is very interesting and informative! I wish you good luck!I love this country very much
How is the safety in Cyrpus? I plan to visit Pafos and Larnaca
i rented a car from Greek side and was able to cross the border of the Turkish side.
Cyprus was illegally invaded and divided in 1974 by Turkey and continues to be. Land under occupation.
♥️
No north nd south only here is cyprus
This map is only Cyprus 😂😂😂no turkey
No southside nd northside
Dhismaha hata wa sem
Dhigu biyo maha wa Cyprus
Cyprus ❤
From now dhow said south nd north here only Cyprus
Cyprus ,greece nd turkey they different
Iion wine❤
The best beaches are on the Turkish side . They are more natural . Most of the beaches on the Greek side are heavily commercialised for tourism. You narrated your video very well . Well done !
It's Turkey not ترکیه
Great vlog but totally wrong about not being able to drive into the Northern Turkish occupied side. This is perfectly possible providing you take out separate insurance from the South before crossing the border. This is often possible to do at the border crossing leaving the South.
Is not Turkish part are not north Cyprus. North part of The Republic of Cyprus occupied by the Turkish 1974. There is no Turkish Republic is not recognized from anyone country only from Turkey. So as local GreekCypriot women you have to investigate and be mindful of what you project.
❤so beautiful places

I've been to Cyprus in October/November this year (I chose this time because it's not so hot and crowded like in the main season) and I found the Troodos mountains with these mystic forests especially beautiful. The nature vibes are amazing and I hope the natural beauties in this country won't be destroyed like in many other countries (like in my country Austria, where lynxes and wolves got wiped out by nature haters, but luckily are coming back now). Cypriots can be proud of all the beautiful forests, mountains, coasts and wildlife on their island. Nature 4 Life!
There's no "Turkish" side.. just occupied side.
This is out of date. You can drive a Greek-side rental over the border with the minor impediment of buying an insurance certificate costing 25 Euros at the border. Going into the Greek side with a Turkish rental is not permitted currently. Also, Famagusta is a large new Turkish residential town, sprawling up the coast northwards from the old walled (Turkish inhabited) city. To the south, the Greek quarter, Varosha, having been emptied and decaying for decades since the Turkish invasion, is now opened to tourists, along limited repaved new roads – and swarms with visitors both Greek and Turkish – gawping at the picturesque decay. There is a joint Turkish-Greek masterplan for renewal, under discussion. Leaving Turkish Famagusta for the Greek side, you first enter the British sovereign territory of the Dhekelia enclave, the border is amiably manned by UK staff. Border formalities at the seven or so crossing points across the island are minimal and quickly dealt with. Visitors will be surprised by the high-quality European Community financed roads and motorways on the Greek side, and the competence of urban development. On the Turkish side things are poorer, more ragged and ill-managed, in particular the vast sprawling hideous quarries in the Kyrenia range beneath Buffavento. On both sides, innumerable things of interest and value are there to be enjoyed.
North Cyprus is a place of magic; fully deserving the title “Pearl of the Mediterranean”. It has a rich and colourful tapestry of unspoilt natural beauty
