Famagusta
Famagusta is a fascinating medieval walled city with oodles of charm and lots to explore
Thanks to its history Famagusta is in fact two towns rolled into one. The ancient walled city of Famagusta is much as it was over five hundred years ago when Ottoman siege engines lay beyond its walls. Meanwhile the modern day town and port flourishes.
Seven hundred years ago Famagusta was the richest city on earth; famed throughout the world for its mercantile magnificence. Famagusta's economy boomed under Venetian rule, fed by trade routes that spanned the globe from England to India. In fact, the city was so well known that Shakespeare chose it as the setting for his play Othello.
There is plenty more to see if you stroll around the old town, where there is something of interest in almost every corner of the old town, which has been recently renovated and retains much of its historical appeal.
Famagusta offers a variety of shops from clothing and gifts to home stores, the Old Town has a number of specialised souvenir shops for those looking for traditional handcrafted items. There is a wide variety of restaurants both in the old city as well as in the modern city. Those in the old city are mostly located around the Namık Kemal Square and in the modern town, most restaurants and bars are located on the "Salamis Road". Famagusta Quayside (locally known as Palm Beach) has become very popular over the years since the restoration of the area. There are a number of cafés and restaurants to choose from offering drinks and snacks and a fantastic sandy beach with good facilities and water sports in the summer months . You can cross into Southern Cyprus at the nearby border crossing located inside the British sovereign base at Agios Nikolaos.
