Blue Beret Camp, United Nations military base in Engomi, Cyprus
Blue Beret Camp functions as the headquarters for the United Nations Peacekeeping Force, situated at the former Nicosia International Airport location.
Established in 1964, the camp emerged as a central command point during a period of tensions between Greek and Turkish communities in Cyprus.
The base houses personnel from multiple nations who coordinate peacekeeping operations while maintaining their distinct military traditions and practices.
The camp contains accommodation blocks with single rooms, medical facilities, recreational areas, and essential services for military personnel and their families.
Located within the United Nations Buffer Zone, the camp operates near Wayne's Keep, a Commonwealth War Graves Commission cemetery.
