Cultural Convergence in Nicosia

Nicosia buffer zone

I’ve never had to show my ID to attend a dinner party before, but they do things differently in Nicosia. The world’s last divided capital is bisected by the Green Line, the buffer zone that has divided the capital of Cyprus since 1974.  A trip to Nicosia is a tale of two very different cities, bound by a shared history but scarred by decades of conflict.

I wrote about my impressions of Nicosia in The Australian’s Travel & Luxury magazine.
