Walking The Divide: Nicosia, The World’s Last Divided Capital
NICOSIA, CYPRUS - OCTOBER 21: A commercial street near the wall marking the boundary between the northern part of Nicosia, administered by the self-declared Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus (TRNC) and recognized only by Turkey, and the United Nations-controlled buffer zone that separates it from the Republic of Cyprus-controlled south, is seen on October 21, 2025. The island has remained divided by a United Nations-controlled Buffer Zone since 1974. (Photo by STR/NurPhoto)
