The most complete surviving Venetian military architecture anywhere outside Italy: a perfect eleven-pointed star, with bastions named after the Venetian families who paid for them. The Green Line, the buffer zone separating north and south Nicosia, runs across the inside of the walls — so you can only walk parts of the circuit at any one time.
On the northern (Lefkoşa) side, the Quirini, Barbaro, and Mula bastions can be approached. The top of the walls offers oblique views over both halves of the city and the buffer zone in between. Bring a hat: there is no shade.
