Maraş, or Varosha. Located in the city of Gazimağusa in the TRNC, it was the most famous area of the country and was known as the Las Vegas of the Mediterranean. Also known as the 'Ghost City', Maraş was closed to both settlement and housing by a decision taken by the United Nations (UN) Security Council. Following the 1974 Cyprus Peace Operation and the capture of the region, Maraş was declared a military prohibited zone. TRNC President Ersin Tatar, who was received by President Erdoğan at the Presidential Complex, made statements after the meeting and announced that a part of Maraş would be opened to public use on October 8, 2020 after 46 years. Thus, the license plate number of Kahramanmaraş, which was opened after 46 years, gained a very different meaning. We went from Kahramanmaraş to Kapalı Maraş and investigated why this name was given here, and we also asked the most famous products of Kahramanmaraş to those who visited Maraş. The fame of Kahramanmaraş, famous for its tarhana, hyacinth and walnut carving, continues to spread all over the world. We had a pleasant conversation with Tatlısu Mayor Hayri Orçan, who is also a fellow Kahramanmaraş resident, about Cyprus and Maraş. Those who tasted Kahramanmaraş tarhana for the first time loved this flavor. It was not easy to open the mysterious code of our walnut carving chest. This will, which opened Kapalı Maraş, managed to open the code of the chest and came across a hyacinth bulb growing in the lands of Kahramanmaraş. We increased the visibility and visibility of Maraş hyacinth, which was also selected as the symbol flower of Expo 2023 Kahramanmaraş, by planting it in the lands of Kapalı Maraş.
