Highlights
Kyrenia (Girne) is a top destination on Cyprus' northern coast, known for its beaches, scenic harbor, and rich history. Nestled between the Kyrenia Mountains and the sea, the city boasts charming streets, traditional architecture, and historic sites.
A key attraction is Kyrenia Castle, originally built by the Byzantines in the 7th century and later expanded by the Venetians and Ottomans. It now houses a museum showcasing the city’s history. Another highlight is St. Hilarion Castle, perched on a hilltop with breathtaking views. Legend says it inspired Disney’s Sleeping Beauty Castle, making it a perfect spot for photos.
Next, we visit Bellapais Abbey, a stunning 13th-century Gothic monument built by the Crusaders. Its well-preserved refectory hosts annual music festivals due to its remarkable acoustics. The Abbey’s history reflects influences from the Genoese, Turks, and British, adding to its cultural significance.
Itinerary
Saint Hilarion Castle
40 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedThis is a medieval castle in northern Cyprus, named after the hermit Hilarion, who lived here in a hermitage around the 6th century. Climbing to St. Hilarion Castle is like stepping into a legend — each turn reveals ancient gates, watchtowers, and cliffside views that get more breathtaking the higher you go. Locals say fairies once lived here, but today it’s hikers and history lovers who chase the magic to the top.Kyrenia Castle
40 minsAdmission Ticket Not IncludedKyrenia’s charm lives in the quiet blend of its narrow streets and lively harbor — where old stone arches frame souvenir shops, and locals still greet each other by name. Around the harbor, sleek yachts float beside fishing boats, and historic walls echo with laughter from modern cafés and rooftop bars. Kyrenia Castle is unique in that, having repeatedly changed its appearance, owners and purpose throughout its history, it has survived like no other monument of such an impressive age, and today it can delight tourists with its grandeur, legends and secrets.Kyrenia Harbour
