Varosha, Cyprus's ghost town, partially accessible since 2020
Parts of Varosha, a formerly abandoned resort town in Cyprus, have been opened to visitors since 2020, though issues of displacement remain unresolved.
Background
Cyprus has been divided since 1974, with the northern part administered by Turkish Cypriots and the southern by Greek Cypriots. Varosha, a suburb of Famagusta, became a no-man's land after the conflict. The status of Varosha and property rights remain key issues in ongoing reunification efforts.

Parts of the sealed-off ghost town of Varosha are now open to visitors, but this has not resolved the displacement of its former inhabitants.
