The Green line

Cyprus was the last closed border in Europe with a Greek and Turkish side until the 90’s. We crossed into the Turkish side which was less developed and touristy than the Greek side. There were also Turkish flags everywhere. We got to see the Kvsrenia Castle which is some preserved some ruins from about the 7th cen. There was part of a shipwreck from about 300 BC, which they were able to date that far back using almonds which were huge and still whole.
