St. Hillarion Castle

 

Perched atop the Kyrenia Mountains, St. Hilarion Castle offers a striking blend of natural beauty and medieval charm. Originally a monastery, the castle now stands as one of the best-preserved ruins in Northern Cyprus. With its fairy-tale towers and labyrinthine passages, it's said to have inspired Walt Disney's Cinderella Castle. Ideal for hiking and history, the castle rewards visitors with panoramic vistas stretching from the mountains to the Mediterranean Sea.
