As far as religion is concerned, North Cyprus remains neutral and this has developed it into a very cosmopolitan region. After Sardinia and Sicily, Cyprus is the 3rd largest island in the Mediterranean Sea and it can be positioned at about 65 km south of Turkey. Other countries close by to Cyprus include Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Israel and Greece.

Since the division of Cyprus in 1974 the Turkish Cypriots have lived in the northern part of the island, while Greek Cypriots live in the south. Cyprus property prices are significantly cheaper in North Cyprus, compared to anywhere else in the Mediterranean, so you can easily find many North Cyprus Villas either for rent or even to purchase.

The shape that Cyprus has taken has come about through the side pressures formed during different geological ages. This has lead to the creation of Capes where the hasn’t been able to cope with the sea’s erosion and also the creation of Gulfs, where the land was not able to cope with the sea’s erosion.

Cyprus in fact hides 2 capes called the Zafer cape which is located on the edge of the Karpaz peninsular and then there is the Korucam Cape on the western side of the island. You will also find 2 gulfs which are found in Guzelyurt and Famagusta so you can imagine the real beauty that North Cyprus has to offer, and this is one of the main reasons for it having become one of Europe’s top holiday destinations. You will find that there aren’t many vacancies in the North Cyprus holiday rental villas throughout the year.

It is a narrow range and is approximately 130 km long. It runs parallel to the coastline and occupies an area of about 260 sq km. This range is composed predominately of limestone, dolomite, and marble. Many North Cyprus Villas can be found to be located around this range. These villas allow one to view the beauty around and they are economical too.

The largest spring in the North Cyprus is in this range near Five Finger Mountains. The fertile north coast is chiefly covered with olive and carob trees. Villas are also located all around over this place. Most of these villas also give the view of the Mesaoria plain, which lies in the centre of the island, between the Kyrenia Mountains and the Troodos Mountains in the south.

You will find North Cyprus villas located on the northern and eastern coast lines which truly have a great advantage point when it comes to views of the blue Mediterranean waters. You will find small coves and bays along this stretch of coast where both swimming and sunbathing can be enjoyed to a maximum. If you aren’t really a beach person then don’t worry as the North Cyprus Villas also offer private Swimming pools.

Thus, North Cyprus, though a little different from other areas of Cyprus, gives an equal to enjoy opportunity through the beautiful places and villas all around. So what are you waiting for, come and enjoy the different side of North Cyprus in North Cyprus Villas.
