Melandra (Greek: Μελάνδρα, also spelled Μελάντρα, Turkish: Beşiktepe) is an abandoned Turkish Cypriot village in the Paphos District of Cyprus, located 2 kilometres (1.2 mi) southeast of Lysos. Prior to 1974, the village was inhabited by Turkish Cypriots. The village is completely destroyed, apparently by shelling. The only two buildings that were not touched are the mosque and the orthodox chapel.
