1960-luvun lopulla ja 1970-luvun alussa Ammochostos, paikallisesti tunnettu nimell\u00e4 Famagusta, oli Kyproksen ykk\u00f6skohde turisteille, ja Varosha oli Famagustan alueen moderni turistialue.<\/p>

Vuosina 1970\u20131974 Varosha ei ollut ainoastaan Kyproksen suosituin matkailukohde, vaan my\u00f6s yksi maailman parhaista lomakohteista, ja Elizabeth Taylor, Richard Burton ja Brigitte Bardot viettiv\u00e4t siell\u00e4 aikaa kauniilla hiekkarannoilla.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Alueelle tulevan kasvavan turistim\u00e4\u00e4r\u00e4n vuoksi rakennettiin monia uusia korkeita rakennuksia ja hotelleja, joita voitte n\u00e4hd\u00e4 t\u00e4\u00e4ll\u00e4 t\u00e4n\u00e4\u00e4n. Valitettavasti elokuussa 1974 kreikkalainen sotilasvallankaappaus, jonka tavoitteena oli yhdist\u00e4\u00e4 saari Manner-Kreikkaan, johti Turkin armeijan hy\u00f6kk\u00e4ykseen, mik\u00e4 johti saaren jakautumiseen: saaren pohjoinen osa miehitettiin turkkilaisten toimesta ja etel\u00e4inen osa kreikkalais-kyprosilaisten toimesta.<\/p>

Yli puolen vuosisadan ajan asia on pysynyt n\u00e4in, ja talot sek\u00e4 hotellit ovat edelleen tyhji\u00e4, ja alue, jossa 40 000 ihmist\u00e4 ty\u00f6skenteli, opiskeli ja kutsui kodikseen, on edelleen asumaton, mist\u00e4 nimitys Autiokaupunki.<\/strong><\/p>
