Varosha Ghost Town – From Luxury Resort to Abandoned City
Varosha Ghost Town is one of the most striking and emotional places in Cyprus — a district where modern history can be seen rather than read about. Situated along the coast of Famagusta, Varosha Ghost Town once represented luxury, tourism prosperity, and the bright future of Cyprus as a Mediterranean holiday destination.
During the 1950s, 60s and early 70s, Varosha Ghost Town developed rapidly into the island’s most fashionable seaside resort.
