Nicosia (Lefkosia) is the capital of the Republic of Cyprus and simultaneously the capital of Northern Cyprus (a Turkish-controlled region recognised only by Turkey), making it the world's last divided capital city. Home to approximately 330,000 residents in the wider area, it operates on Eastern European Time (EET/EEST). The city is literally divided by the UN Buffer Zone (the Green Line) — a strip of abandoned buildings, barbed wire, and UN observation posts running across its centre. On the Republic of Cyprus side, Nicosia is a prosperous EU capital, a significant offshore banking and business registration hub, and a growing tech centre. Cyprus joined the EU in 2004 and adopted the euro in 2008. The Venetian Walls encircling the old city, built in the 16th century, are exceptionally well preserved. Cyprus's Mediterranean climate, ancient history (birthplace of Aphrodite according to mythology), and beaches make it a major tourism destination.
