This makes me so sad, we lived here when I was a boy, from 1972 to 74, by the time of the war, we had moved to the Army Camp just outside Famagusta and I remember standing at the end of the street watching the Turkish planes bomb Famagusta only 4 miles away, and the columns of black smoke, an exciting adventure it seemed as an 11 year old boy, but our old Greek friends and neighbours lost everything
Thank you for your memories - Paul
Its always boggled my mind how man draws a line in the Sand and says " this is mine now, Don't stop on the dirt.."
Hopefully the UN will actually do their job and help get this place back.
They have only had 46 years. Don't rush them. These things take time.
Nothing to do with the UN,infact the UN is the problem in Cyprus,by the way I was with the UN in 74 and have lived here for over 20years,get rid of the UN and we will have a settlement.
The Turkish have ruined north-east Cyprus, Famagusta used to be the envy of the world when it came to beach resort towns it rivaled places in the Caribbean, Australia, the Pacific,Asia. I have friends who are Greek and Turkish who think the Cyprus issue has gone to far, personally I think the Greeks have done a far better job of looking after Cyprus then the Turkish have.
Maybe you need to go to the karpaz peninsula and see the five star hotels that have been built there they are amazing. Or the new hotels and resorts in kyrenia. We went there two years ago and would have gone back last year but couldn't because of covid. Everyone is sooo friendly.
Nice video! I really wanted to see some footage of Famagusta. Thank you. I have a question! How did you record it? I saw a Netflix show where a guy traveled to Cyprus and couldn't get inside the city. The guards didn't let him.
I went on a bus tour from the Greek side of the island the soldiers did wave the guns at me twice
As soon as the borders open, we will try to explore varosha. But cyprus is full of abandoned villages who are free to explore.
Some time ago we was in a huge mine shaft and explored it (you can find a video of the inside of the mine shaft on our channel). So cyprus is full of amazing abandoned stuff.
Where are the abandoned villages and can you name them and direct me to them.
if the town was sealed off then how come so many things like shops and buildings are empty even the doorframes and windows are smashed....and yet no one has been allowed in there. I also see an abandoned van around the 6.26 mark...
May this beautiful country be as peaceful as it was before the war.
I hope so. A free united Cyprus for all Cypriots
It is a beautiful place - I sub... to your channel
Thank you
What happened in this town, why is it still sectioned off? is it due to the location and someone would profit substantially so noone can have it, or is it something more deeper?
Very short answer is no one wants it !
İt is open now everyone visit and go inside
Deveriam filmar dentro dos edifícios
I didn't know you could get into famagusta. How can you access it?
Joe Simpson you can’t, he’s outside the gate
Cyprus is lovely and the story is sad about this part of the land. However it is a brilliant tourist attraction and must make a lot by being just this. Even though you are not allowed in and have to respect the boundaries.
Thank you for watching and your great comment 👍🏻
Just remember, you don't want to subsidise an illegal regime. It should be returned to it's rightful owners. Turkey is gaining nothing by allowing this to continue
You are not allowed in but I don't respect the 'boundaries' , because I am against Turkey's occupation in Cyprus
@@panostheodoulou1166 Yes that is my birthplace and ANCESTRAL HOMELAND that i cannot live in
Very depressing I thought..
Faster time I see no people want happened 🤲🏻when r they going
How long has it been sealed off?
Since a few days after the war itself
Since year 1974 when the turkish occupation begun
It's been sealed off since 1974. I would class it as an invasion rather than a war. A brutal invasion with much more civilians than military deliberately killed
Man, this is extremely sad, the ordinary Cypriots of Greek and Turkish must get to gather and resolve this issue immediately and should never listen to paid politician.
Come on stop with the blame and get to gather and get alone, I'm sure you will stand to reap huge benefits in every level.

Thank you for taking time to comment it's much appreciated!
Cyprus is a victim of it's geographical location, near the Middle East, gateway to Europe and Asia. Perfect for the military superpowars of the West. Unfortunately, the problems of Cyprus have been caused by outside influences, and not internal between Greek and Turkish Cypriots - they were just used as an excuse . Divide and rule
@@panostheodoulou1166 nice to hear a Greek Cypriot speak some sense. I have always said that the British divide and rule as they have done in Sri Lanka Kenya India and Cyprus. Turks and Greeks lived peacefully under the ottomans but give Cyprus to the British and all of a sudden the two communities start fighting each other. Britain stoked the fire and unfortunately the Cypriots fell for it. Would be nice to negotiate a solution and tell the British to remove their bases then we would see the nasty side of them.
their is a mixed village in the south in Cyprus pela where Turkish and Greek Cypriots coexist and live in peace
why not Famagusta which was the jewel of the Mediterranean. many Cypriots turk and Greek want to reopen this ghost town but turkey USA and Britain want division for their own interests and friends in the region. eventually it will be all Turkish and the Cypriots will again will suffer the final indignation of having their island stolen and taken from them. so much for democracy justice and the rule of law. the united nations the western powers speak with forked tongues. turkey sweeps the board and a divided island suits the policies of the autocrats and despots.
Thank you for watching and taking the time to comment!
This could open up a whole discussion on the subject!
@@MRTRIPADVISOR haha,not exactly
Building at 0:26 looks like it was bombed?
+DmitShu it was bombed from the air 🙁
It was bombed by Turkey's airforce
Why isn't anyone been living in this town since 1974
It’s a war dispute between Greece and Turkey
The Turks invaded and they fled for their lives.
Because the Cypriot people fled for their lives when Turkey invaded this beautiful island. They have never returned since and the Turks have put up signs saying 'Forbidden Zone'. Turkey is still occupying half of Cyprus, the northern area of the island, contrary to UN and Security Council Resolutios
Resolutions
Offf offf çok yazık çoook resmen milli servet yani böyle kırk yıl sahipsiz kalacağına iki taraftan birisi sahip çıksaydıya böyle olmaz ki !!!
Tribal war...
Cyprus - the unsinkable aircraft carrier. Not tribal war my friend. I recommend a book - ' The Cyprus Conspiracy' my O'Malley and Craig, two journalist
Hayret bir şey Çernobil nükleer santrali patlamış gibi burada ..!!!!
I'd love to see Turks pushed out totally
