Bradt's North Cyprus: The Ultimate Guide to the Northern Region of Cyprus

Bradt's North Cyprus remains the most authoritative guide available to the fascinating and beautiful northern region of the eastern Mediterranean island of Cyprus. Thoroughly updated by expert authors and now into its ninth edition, it offers everything you need for a successful trip, from pre-departure and background information, including when to visit, red tape, safety, history, culture, and natural history, to accommodation, restaurants, shopping, festivals, transport, and money. The region is broken down into four areas, each of which is covered in detail, including Girne (Kyrenia), Lefkos (Nicosia), Gazimagusa (Famagusta), and the Karpas Peninsula, with its population of wild donkeys. Where to go and what to see are detailed for each area, and attractions such as Crusader castles, Buyykonuk's markets, and eco-festivals, beaches, and turtle watching are all covered. There are also contributions from local specialists on flora and fauna.

Steeped in history, soaked in sunshine, North Cyprus offers a great deal to those who want to delve deep into the past or to those keen to pull up a sunbed and simply relax. Girne is still the most attractive harbor on the whole island, while Lefkosa's old quarter exudes the ambience of an old Middle Eastern trading town. Gazimagusa is fringed with some excellent beaches, while also being close to North Cyprus's most revered historic site, Salamis. With Bradt's North Cyprus, hike up to Buffavento, stroll through the cloisters of Bellapais Abbey, or go barefoot on the golden sands of the Karpas Peninsula.
