The west of North Cyprus

St Mamas Monastery, Güzelyurt

Saint Mamas Monastery and Church in the town of Güzelyurt (Morfou) in the south-west of Northern Cyprus. Saint Mamas is popularly believed to have lived as a hermit in a cave near Morfou. Before 1974, the faithful used to visit the ancient marble tomb of Saint Mamas here, from which a mysterious liquid is said to have oozed when the Ottomans pierced it looking for treasure.
