All this, plus reliable sunshine and the friendly welcome of the people, explains why northern Cyprus is becoming an increasingly popular destination for holidays. This illustrated guide provides all the information needed for an enjoyable visit: accommodation, transport, nightlife and eating out are covered, as well as the history, culture and flora of the area, suggested touring routes and an A-Z gazetteer.
