Cyprus
Cyprus is located just on the border of Asia and Europe and is, therefore, part of both continents. What you might not know is that the country is split into 2 parts: a Greek (south) and Turkish (north) part. The Turkish army invaded Cyprus and bombed several cities. Immediately after the invasion, the Turkish army sealed off the area with a wall. To this day there is still a UN buffer zone across the border but you don’t have to worry: Cyprus is in peace.

Northern part ~ Turkish part
Southern part ~ Greek Part
I haven’t visited the southern part yet but I heard it also has some beautiful spots to behold like Paphos, Aphrodite’s rock, and Olympus mountain.
Did you know? Did you know that both Cyprus and Turkey are officially part of Asia, but that they are also considered to be part of Europe as they are located just on the border?
