Nicosia – Museum of Barbarism – Walled City – Selimiye Mosque – Arasta Bazaar – Arab Ahmet Neighborhood
Following our arrival at Ercan Airport, we meet our guide and transfer vehicle and begin our tour. After a brief briefing at the airport, we depart for Nicosia, the capital of the Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus. The distance between Ercan Airport and Nicosia city center is approximately 25 kilometers, and our journey takes an average of 30 minutes. Along the way, we reach Nicosia while receiving information from our guide about Cyprus’s recent history and island culture.
We begin our tour with the Barbarism Museum, which bears witness to the island’s recent history. This house, where the family of Major Physician Nihat İlhan lost their lives during the events of 1963 known in history as “Bloody Christmas,” is now open to visitors as a museum. After visiting the museum accompanied by our guide’s explanations, we see the Green Line, which divides Nicosia into two parts, panoramically.
As our tour continues, we proceed to the Walled City area, where Nicosia’s historic character is felt most strongly. We get off our vehicle at the monumental Kyrenia Gate and begin our walking tour. During our walk inside the walls, we see the Cyprus Turkish History, Culture and National Struggle Museum, Samanbahçe Houses, Sarayönü Square and the Obelisk. We then visit the Selimiye Mosque, one of Nicosia’s most magnificent structures, where Gothic and Ottoman architecture can be seen together.
In the final part of our tour, we take a walk through the Arasta Bazaar, which dates from the Ottoman period to the present day, and see the Lokmacı Border Gate, which connects the northern and southern parts of Nicosia. After a short period of free time, we complete the day’s program and depart for our hotel, where we will stay overnight.
