The Liberty Monument
Memorial
👍👍 Maybe one of the most powerful monuments and testaments for freedom I've ever seen. The inscription "remember that you have to fight for freedom" will always be prescient. I was terribly impressed by the amount of bronze statues, their sheer detail and facial emotions

Environmental Information Center Athalassa National Forest Park

👍👍 Great selection of herbs and wild flowers, small animals that you would find in cyprus like goats, cyprus donkeys, sheep, bull, Turtles, goose, chickens etc.. Just enough to satisfy small kids, also nice area outside for a little sit down, snack or game of cards.. Giant wooden chess is cool.

Nicosia Old City
Tourist attraction
👍👍 The walled city of Nicosia (both sides of the green line) has a unique character of small streets with beautiful sand stone buildings amd churches. I have been there many times, but each time I always find something new there - either a new cosy cafe, beautiful mansion or a side street. Safe to vis...

Bayraktar Mosque
Mosque
👍👍 The real reason for the 5 stars is to point out that we Greek Cypriots respect the faith of all people and their places of worship. Too bad I see Orthodox Churches in the North turned into barns... Shame!!!

Nicosia Municipal Park
Park
👍 Nice park and is well looked after, as apposed to other places in Nicosia. It would be good if the fish pond was cleaned more frequently as there is garbage inside.
Nice little fountain to sit around.
There are peacocks and ducks in cages, but they seem pretty well looked after. There is also a stat...

Omeriye Mosque
Mosque
👍 Great mosque,
The cons:
- The sermon is in Arabic only, since Cyprus has a diverse ethnicity in Nicosia, it would be better if it was in English
Edit: the sheikh did an explanation in English at the end, I raise by one star my review.
- Sometimes the microphone bugs and the sound system is saturati...

The mansion has a typical inner courtyard of...

Venetian Column
Monument
👍 In the centre of Ataturk square in Lefkosa is the Venetian Column, locally known as Sarayonu. The granite column was originally at the temple of Zeus in Salamis, but was moved in 1489 to Nicosia, as a tribute to Venetian rule, which is why many think it was built by the Venetians although it wasn't....
