Famagusta from the air
Aerial images of parts of Famagusta taken (I guess) in 2003-2004.
Famagusta, for those that are not familiar with the history of our country, has been an uninhabited 'ghost town' since 14th August 1974, when the inhabitants of Famagusta were forced out of their homes by the Turkish troops that invaded the island a month earlier on the 20th July 1974. Just over a third of the island is still under Turkish occupation and almost 200,000 Greek Cypriots are still not allowed to return to their homes.
