A real insider tip in the north of Cyprus: The monastery ruins are located above the village of Karsiyaka. The monastery had already been abandoned in 1882, when Lord Kitchener was surveying Cyprus. The complex was quite large and magnificent at the time, but unfortunately no one is taking care of the impressive ruins anymore! It is falling into disrepair, but would be worth preserving. What a shame.
To reach the ruins, park the car below at the end of the asphalt road and then walk up. Please be careful when walking, as the ruins are unfortunately not secured.
