Nicosia District

Cyprus's largest district encompasses the divided capital city of Nicosia, where ancient Venetian walls embrace a fascinating blend of Byzantine churches, Ottoman mosques, and modern cafés. The district offers visitors a unique experience of crossing between the Greek Cypriot south and Turkish Cypriot north, making it the world's last divided capital. Beyond the historic city center, the district features traditional villages, archaeological sites, and the scenic Troodos foothills.
