In the 70’s, there was a conflict over this island, between the Greeks and the Turks. Prior to that, however, this was a busy resort town, with celebrities and high-rollers coming from all over.

When Turkey invaded in 1974, everybody fled, leaving their food on the table and their cars in the garage. Now in control, the Turkish government fenced off the tourist centre of Varosha, and it remains that way to this date.

It literally looks like what a world would look like, if human inhabitants just blipped out if existence.
