Sunday in Nicosia
I am on Cyprus, visiting the university in Nicosia, and got a chance to walk around the old city on Sunday - it is fascinating, a mix of decaying stone houses and recently restored ones.
Around the green line, there are a fair number of derelict buildings. But there is now a crossing point into the Turkish side where you just show your passport, and lots of people were going back and forth. They clearly hope to reunite the city. Here is a photo of the crossing:
There are lots more photos at Picasa
