Lambousa
Lapta -cyprus
It is believed that the townsfolk of Lambousa, who were tired of the Arab attacks which began in the 7th Century, transferred their houses to the inner slopes of the mountain using the same stones carried from their old houses as building materials to construct Lapta.

Northern Cyprus the Lost Gem
Northern Cyprus is arguably the most aesthetic part of this Mediterranean Island paradise. With its rich mountain ranges and chromatic valleys the North is probably more fecund too. There are hundreds of unspoiled beaches and the conventional Cypriot villages have exciting views out over the ocean. In fact many Greek Cypriots in the South would agree that Northern Cyprus is the better half of the Island too. Unfortunately however these Greek Cypriots no longer dwell on the North of the Island and see themselves as refugees or displaced persons. You see, in 1974 Turkey intruded on Northern Cyprus which they have resided ever since despite foreign disaproval and many trade embargoes
