Hi all,



I have heard that there is a craft village in the TRNC, where artisans sell their wares. Where is this please and is it open every day?

On your way (coastal road) to Kantara Castle you can stop in Mersinlik and look at the home-made stuff the ladies of the village have on offer.

It may be Buyukonuk that you are thinking of - this is an eco - tourism village - the village has had a lot of money time and effort poured into it to encourage trade and tourism there.

the village has had a lot of money time and effort poured into it to encourage trade and tourism there - but not a lot of publicity.
