At one point in time, Varosha, located within the Famagusta district of Cyprus , was renowned for its beautiful beaches, luxurious hotels, and vibrant nightlife that attracted Europe’s cosmopolitan elite. Today, the city seems frozen in time, with a feeling of abandonment and decay throughout its once-busy streets, and a poignant reminder entire cities are often victims of war too. Varosha's demise came with the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974 when its inhabitants were forced to flee.
Although efforts to address the status of Varosha have been continuing for decades, with different ideas and talks being discarded by political complications and tension between the Turkish and Greek portions of the island, a breakthrough has finally been achieved.
