North Cyprus is a neutral country when it comes to religion and you will find a very cosmopolitan mixture in this region of Cyprus. The island of Cyprus is the 3rd largest throughout the Mediterranean coming after Sardinia and Sicily, and it is situated at 65 km south of Turkey. There are several other countries in this region including Syria, Lebanon, Egypt, Israel and Greece.

!974 was the year when Cyprus had to be split into 2 halves leaving the Turkish Cypriots in the North and the Greek Cypriots in the south. In the North of Cyprus you will find virtually the lowest property prices in the Mediterranean as well as cheaper rentals.

The shape of Cyprus is due to the side pressures formed during different geological ages. Capes have arisen where the land has been strong enough to the sea's erosion and Gulfs created where the land could not stand up to the effects of the sea's erosion.

There are two capes, Zafer Cape at the end of the Karpaz peninsula and Korucam Cape to the west. The two gulfs are at Guzelyurt and Famagusta. All this makes North Cyprus a famous tourist destination and gives opportunity for many North Cyprus Villas to survive and flourish.

This range is composed predominately of limestone, dolomite, and marble. Many North Cyprus Villas can be found to be located around this range. These villas allow one to view the beauty around and they are economical too.

The northern coast is very fertile and lies home to great vegetation including olive and carob trees. There is also a large natural spring in the Five Finger mountain region which also has great access from the North Cyprus villas. The villas themselves hold great views of the Mesaoria plain, which is found in the centre of the island between the Kyrenia and the Troodos mountain ranges.
