I am wondering if anyone can help. I came to Kyrenia late 60's early 70's - Kyrenia has cahnged considerably since then. I have very fond memories of going to the Keo office, bus staion and open air cinema. I can no longer (with the exception of the bus station) recognise where they were. I would love to have an old street plan. Has anyone got one or can tell me where I might find one.

Many thanks

At the Chateau Lambrousa (Lapta) Saturday morning market I saw a guy selling prints of old Kyrenia. I didn't see him selling maps but he might know a man/woman who does. You never know - good luck



Also at the same market Hans (DC) has a stall selling maps but not sure if they are to the scale you need. Perhaps he can tell you

When does the Chateau Lambrousa market finish or is it a year round market?

=> I have a town plan from Kyrenia 1955 (with all your memories on it!) for you. But you've opted to hide your email address so I can't send you a copy. If you send me email (mcf.trnc@gmail.com ) I'll let you know where and how to download the map (large file).

Addition to message 4: There's even an "Archbishop Makarios II Square" on the plan, near the St. Hilarion Cinema..!

I think there are some pictures of the Old Town in the Pia Bella, not sure if I have seen one of an old map in there, I am not there until December but I sure it is worth going in to have a look.

Daisy, forgot to ask: do you want "print quality, 300 dpi" or "screen quality, 72 dpi"?

Oh, sh*t! Typo again. "Plesure" in msg 10 should be pleasure, of course! Why the h*ck (h*ll) can't we communicate in Dutch on this board?

Stop sending me email about the 1955 Kyrenia city plan, please. I've broken the download link and the map is no longer available.
