kyrenia castle

来到北塞的 Kyrenia，最重要的景点是来参观这一个镇守 Kyrenia 的城堡。这是前塞浦路斯王国的要塞，用来抵挡土耳其军同镇守航道的。石建的堡垒，算是全市的最高建筑，登上敌楼，鸟瞰地中海，鸟瞰 Kyrenia 城，风景的确会令人疯狂地拍照。城不是太大，但要爬上去顶部，则要经过曲曲折折的小路，这一种设计，我后来才知道是军事的特别设计。另外在城中央，大大公整的阅兵广场，看起来，十分之有气势。也可以联想得起，几百年前，Kyrenia 对塞浦路斯来说，是一个很重要的地方。

这里不需要特别过来看看，经过港口顺便过来这边走走，非常的壮观，晚上就走一下就可以，不要走太远比较还是比较黑暗，安全第一

Fabulous castle with plenty of walls to walk on (to take in the view of the pretty Kyrenia/Girne harbour). The highlight for us was the shipwreck of Girne - a bonus if you're interested in maritime history.

The harbour is wrap around outdoor food restaurants. Don't even glance at a menu or the workers will be in your face. The harbour is packed with tour boats that are past there sell by date.

very nice and worth a few photos but theres not much more to it in my view, it sits on the harbour and looks good however thats about allnot worth travelling just to see it thats what you are planning.

The Castle is an imposing structure sitting on one side of the horseshoe-shaped harbour.It houses the Shipwreck Museum -the remains of a merchant ship and its cargo date back to the 4th century BC.You can see the Middle Aged castle dungeons, a Neolithic settlement and many more. The view of the harbour from out here is breathtaking.Entrance Fee is €4.5 or 12 TL.

You can spend a peasant couple of hours at Kyrenia Castle. Admittance is 7 turkish lire per person which, like entrance fees to all the historical sites in Northern Cyprus, is modest. The exhibits are sparse and are fairly interesting but displayed in a very basic manner.Not a lot to recommend it but a visit passes a couple of pleasant hours of your holiday.

A bit like a TARDIS this place. Looks much larger when you're inside than it looks from outside. Take a walk around the ramparts if you are feeling brave as there are no particularly sound barriers to stop you dropping off edge in places. Keeps the walk interesting though! ;-). Not particularly suited for less able bodied or fit people as lots of stair climbing and dungeon descending. Don't rush the visit and for an added bonus visit the castle coffee shop/bar just outside the castle entrance for an experience like you've never had before!

The castle is well worth visiting - the views from the top over the harbour are worth the small entry fee alone. Seeing the ship dating from the 4th century BC was amazing.

inwas amazed at the sight of this magnificent edifice.I wonder how long does it take to build this structure and by what number of people.A castle believed to be constructed in The Bronze Age is still standing and even stronger than some new ones.A tour of the castle will give you an illustration of people of that period lives their lives and rulers ruled the people.

Interesting place to visit and from the top of the castle the views of the harbour and Kyrenia town are spectacular.

plenty to see, very good ship wreck museum, lots of information in english and ticket price very reasonable

Within walking distance of our hotel (Dome) this is a very impressive building, entrance is 12 Turkish lira each but includes entry to the Dungeon exhibit (very ghoulish) and the Shipwreck Museum, plus the Cistern. I was disappointed with the Cistern as having seen the complex in Istanbul I was expecting something good, however, the lighting was broken so you could only go down a few steps and could see nothing at all except the reflection of the water! The Castle itself is great with lots of places to walk about. They do have a cafe, but with the Harbour so near there are plenty of other places to eat.

A nice place to visit. A historical castle with great view of the harbour.You can spend a pleasant day if you combine this seeing with a walk and a coffee/lunch/dinner at the harbour area.Yes i do recommend the place

Dont expect much, shipwreck is the only attraction in it. The castle has nice view to the harbor and some of the city. it is a must see due to these 2 things. it will take your 30 mins. it is at the end of the harbor to the east.
