The island of Cyprus has experienced some political upheaval during its history and it remains very much an island divided. The northern part of the island is occupied by forces loyal to Turkey, while the southern part of the island is recognised by most of the rest of the world.For tourists, this political split has had ramifications. Until recently, almost all visitors opted to visit the south of the island. Though things have now changed and it is possible to visit northern Cyprus, it's fair to say that the south retains its popularity
