A ghost town in Cyprus that was abandoned in the 1974 has controversially partially reopened to visitors.
After Turkey took control of northern Cyprus in the 1974, the resort town Varosha was left empty.
Residents and tourists planned to return, but the resort was fenced off and remained so for decades.
In October 2021, the town and surrounding beach finally reopened after nearly 47 year, but have it has become a point of controversy.
Now tourists are welcome to walk a few select road or hire wonky bikes for 6 euros. The beach can also be enjoyed!
