                          About Public Holidays in Cyprus

                          Cyprus's calendar reflects the island's division: the Republic of Cyprus (Greek Cypriot, EU member) observes Greek Orthodox Easter and Greek national days like Ochi Day (October 28), while the north follows Turkish holidays and the Islamic calendar - the two communities' public holidays barely overlap despite sharing the same island.
