Pyla (Greek: Πύλα; Turkish: Pile) is a village in Larnaca District, Cyprus. The village is located in the eastern part of the island, in the United Nations Buffer Zone in Cyprus, that separates the internationally recognized southern part of the island from the Turkish occupied northern third of the island (see: Turkish Republic of Northern Cyprus). The village is located very close to the UK Dhekelia Sovereign Base Area. From a legal point of view, it is administered as all other areas controlled by the Greek Cypriot governments.
