One of the world's oldest cities, Nicosia, the capital of Cyprus, is vastly underrated and most visitors head straight to a holiday base on the coast. But those who make the easy journey to the city, which lies roughly in the centre of the island, will be rewarded with more than 1,000 years of history, authentic Cypriot cuisine and lively nightlife.
The Old Town lies within massive 16th-century Venetian walls and is home to important museums, Byzantine churches, medieval and neoclassical buildings. Known as Lefkosia to Greek speakers, Nicosia is unique for being the world's last divided capital, with the infamous green line splitting it in two.
