Located in Guzelyurt, the Morphou Archaeology and Nature Museum is a unique attraction that combines natural history and archaeology. Originally the palace of the Bishop of Morphou, the building now houses a museum that opened in 1979 after restoration. The ground floor showcases a collection of stuffed animals native to Cyprus, while the upper floors exhibit a wide range of archaeological finds from the Neolithic and Bronze Ages, including displays from the Tumba Tou Skuru settlement. The courtyard serves as an open-air museum, featuring pieces from the Classical, Hellenistic and Roman periods. The museum's most notable artefacts are the 'Golden Leaves of Soli', discovered in 2005, which include a breathtaking tiara of delicately intertwined gold leaves. Another significant piece is the 2nd-century AD statue of the Anatolian Goddess Artemis of Ephesus, found at the Salamis ruins in 1980. Just around the corner from the popular St Mamas Church and Icon Museum, the Morphou Archaeology and Nature Museum is a rewarding visit for those interested in the rich history and natural beauty of Northern Cyprus.

The Mystic Lamb, or ‘The Adoration of the Mystic Lamb’ by the Van Eyck brothers, completed in 1432, is recognised worldwide as a great work of art, and one of the most influential paintings ever made. It is an absolute must-see on your weekend break to Ghent. A total of 18 panels form a magical evocation of scenes from the Bible, as well as a portrait of the church warden, Joos Vijd, who commissioned the altarpiece, and his wife Elisabeth Borluut. The monumental Mystic Lamb was painted on oak panels covered in thin layers of a mixture of chalk and animal glue. The figures were applied in several layers of oil paint. The combination of the painstaking work and transparent paint creates an extra dimension. Discover it for yourself as you stand in front of this masterpiece. You will see that an inner glow seems to radiate from the painting: the light of the divine. Hubert van Eyck painted part of the Ghent Altarpiece that includes the Mystic Lamb, but was never able to finish it. His younger brother Jan, an absolute master of the art of painting, is said to have finished this masterpiece a few years after Hubert’s death.
