St Hilarion Castle
Legend has it that this dreamy
fortress
was the inspiration for the spectacularly animated
palace of the wicked queen in Walt Disney's
Snow White.
Its ruins now form a jagged out-
line across the rocky landscape, exuding the Gothic charm of the Lusignan court that once
convened here during the summer. The castle's precipitous staircases and overrun gardens
and paths form an arduous climb to its tower. From here, though, the spectacular views
across the sea to the Anatolian coast only add to its magical quality.
