Geocache Description:

FTF congratulations to Brandi Sour!!!!

This is the first on a series of five caches that take you on a walk around the moat of Famagusta (Magusa in Turkish) City. If you are driving to the location we suggest you park near to N35 07.375 E033 56.871, near 'Arsenale'. If you follow the walk you can also tag on a 6th cache (A Sea-port in Cyprus).
The walls of Famagusta are about two miles in length, totally surrounding the old city, and are remarkably well preserved. Probably the best view of them is from the moat, itself running for over a mile along the three landward sides. Don't believe some maps that tell you part is inaccessible because of military occupation. This has not been the case for several years now. Although meant to be a foot and cycle path, it is possible to drive round the moat, although you get a much better view on foot.

This cache is a small pot with room for a few swaps and TB's.

Please look out for muggles and replace the cache in the same place.
