List of cities, towns and villages in Cyprus
This is a list of settlements in Cyprus. The English name is indicated first, followed by the Greek and Turkish names, in turn followed by any former names, including ones used in antiquity. Note that even though, prior to the 1974 Turkish invasion of Cyprus, Turkish names existed for some villages/towns, due to political reasons, most of the villages/towns were given a different Turkish name. The largest cities in Cyprus, in order from largest, are Nicosia (capital), Limassol, Larnaca, Paphos, Famagusta and Kyrenia.
