Download or read book Nicosia Travel Guide written by Daniel Windsor and published by Interactive Media Licensing. This book was released on 2024-06-14 with total page 30 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Nicosia, the capital city of Cyprus, stands as a unique blend of ancient history and modern urban life. Nestled in the heart of the Mediterranean, Nicosia is not just the administrative and economic center of Cyprus but also a cultural hub that reflects the island's rich and diverse heritage. This city, which has been continuously inhabited for over 4,500 years, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past while simultaneously embracing the future. Nicosia’s significance is amplified by its position as the last divided capital in Europe. Since the Turkish invasion of Cyprus in 1974, Nicosia has been split into two parts: the northern section controlled by Turkish Cypriots and the southern part governed by Greek Cypriots. This division has created a city with two distinct identities, each with its own traditions, culture, and way of life. Despite this separation, efforts for reunification and cooperation continue, reflecting the resilience and hope of its residents. Walking through Nicosia is like traversing a timeline of history. The ancient walls that encircle the city, built by the Venetians in the 16th century, are a testament to its strategic importance over the centuries. These walls, along with other historical landmarks such as the Selimiye Mosque (formerly the Cathedral of Saint Sophia) and the Archbishop's Palace, offer a window into the city’s storied past. Modern Nicosia is a vibrant city where the old meets the new. Skyscrapers and modern architecture sit comfortably alongside traditional Cypriot houses and Byzantine churches. The city is a melting pot of cultures, with a population that includes not just Greek and Turkish Cypriots, but also expatriates and immigrants from around the world. This diversity is reflected in the city’s cuisine, festivals, and daily life, making Nicosia a dynamic and exciting place to live and visit. Economically, Nicosia is the powerhouse of Cyprus. It hosts the island's main financial institutions, major businesses, and educational centers, including the University of Cyprus. The city’s thriving economy is complemented by its role as a cultural and educational center, with numerous museums, galleries, and theaters. These institutions play a crucial role in preserving and promoting the rich cultural heritage of Nicosia and Cyprus as a whole. Environmental sustainability is also becoming a focus in Nicosia’s development. Green spaces, such as the Pedieos River Linear Park, provide residents and visitors with a respite from the urban hustle and bustle. Initiatives to promote cycling and public transportation aim to reduce the city’s carbon footprint, making it a more livable and environmentally friendly urban center. Nicosia is a city that encapsulates the spirit of Cyprus: a place where history and modernity coexist, where diverse cultures blend harmoniously, and where the challenges of the past are met with optimism for the future. It is a city that invites exploration and discovery, offering something for everyone, from history enthusiasts to modern urbanites. Nicosia is not just the heart of Cyprus but also a symbol of its enduring legacy and future potential.
Download or read book Nicosia Beyond Barriers written by Alev Adil and published by Saqi Books. This book was released on 2019-06-06 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Cyprus' capital Nicosia has been split by a militarised border for decades. In this collection, writers from all sides of the divide reimagine the past, present and future of their city. Here, Cypriot-Greeks coexist alongside Cypriot-Turks, the north with the south, town with countryside, dominant voices with the marginalised. This is a city of endless possibilities – a place where an anthropologist from London and a talkative Marxist are hunted by a gunman in the Forbidden zone; where a romance between two aspiring Tango dancers falls victim to Nicosia's time difference; and where an artist finds his workplace on a rooftop, where he paints a horizon disturbed only by birds. Together, these writers journey beyond the beaten track creating a complete picture of Nicosia, the world's last divided capital city, that defies barriers of all kinds.
Download or read book Nic Nicosia written by Nic Nicosia and published by University of Texas Press. This book was released on 2012-10-15 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Photographer and filmmaker Nic Nicosia makes pictures. Since the late 1970s, Nicosia has staged and constructed sets, objects, and situations to be photographed rather than to reproduce something that already exists. These conceptual fabrications have ranged from elaborate sets with live actors to dioramas and abstract constructions. Whether his pictures contain a disturbing suburban narrative, or are fabricated by the act of drawing, or are simply created by the use of common objects with dramatic lighting, the familiar thread of Nicosia's unique vision and sensibility is always present. Nic Nicosia is the first major publication of the artist's work and covers his entire oeuvre through 2011. The catalog presents images from all of Nicosia's major photographic series, including Domestic Dramas, Near (modern) Disasters, The Cast, Life as We Know It, Real Pictures, Love + Lust, Acts, Sex Acts, Untitled Landscapes, 365 SaFe Days, Untitled (drawing), Space Time Light, I See Light, and in the absence of others, as well as stills from the videos Middletown, Moving Picture, Middletown Morning, Cerchi E Quadratti, On Acting America, and 9 1/2 Hours to SaFe. Accompanying the catalog is an overview of Nicosia's career by Michelle White, an interview with the artist by Sue Graze, and an original short story by Philipp Meyer that powerfully resonates with the sense of wonder and menace in Nicosia's art.
