Walking The Divide: Nicosia, The World’s Last Divided Capital
NICOSIA, CYPRUS – OCTOBER 21: A view of the typical street in the Old Town of Nicosia, near the Ledra (Lokmaci) Street crossing between the Republic of Cyprus–controlled south and the northern part of Nicosia, administered by the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC), recognised only by Turkey, is seen on October 21, 2025. The island has remained divided by a United Nations-controlled Buffer Zone since 1974. (Photo by STR/NurPhoto)
