On the Northern Coast of the island, lies Kyrenia (Girne),
which is a magnificent city built many centuries ago.
This city is a unique composition of more than three thousand years of history
and civilization.
It is ideally situated
between the Northern seacoast of the island and the PentaDactylos
(Five Fingers) Mountains running parallel to the seashore. This
exceptional location, along with unique and abundant vegetation was
enough for Kyrenia to become a paradise in the Eastern
Mediterranean
During modern times, Kyrenia has been a major
attraction to tourists from all over the world. Its spectacular
antique Harbor and Castle is
a delight for tourists who are fond of historic sites. Its beaches are
often rated as the best found in the Eastern Mediterranean.
Finally, with 36 casinos found within the city limits, Kyrenia has
something to offer to any type of activity seeker.
