Situated in the
Northwest of
Cyprus,
Guzelyurt is one
of the richest
agricultural
areas in Cyprus,
famous
particulary for
the Citrus
(Orange, Lemon,
Grapefruit) and
strawberries
from the area
which thrive in
its fertile red
soil. Guzelyurt
is an ideal
picnic spot for
those who want
to escape from
the noise and
rush of the city
life and spend
the day in the
peace and quiet
of natural
surroundings. In
spring the light
breezes scatter
the white orange
blossoms from
which you can
smell the
fragrance around
the town, while
in other seasons
the golden
oranges and
lemons shine on
the trees. A
large proportion
of the citrus
fruits are
exported, and
the remaining
are made into
fruit juice and
canned for local
consumption and
export. Visit
the former
Monastery of St.
Mamas,
originally
Byzantine with
Gothic
establishments.
Some of the
carvings date
from c. 1500.
The Ruins of
Soli (600 BC)
and the Palace
of Vouni, from
the 5th century
BC, are a must
for
archeologists or
those interested
in antiquities.
