Exometochi (Greek: Εξωμετόχι, pronounced [e̞kso̞me̞ˈt̪o̞çʲi]; Turkish: Düzova) is a village in the Nicosia District of Cyprus, 2 km east of Palaikythro. De facto, it is under the control of Northern Cyprus and is administered as a part of the Lefkoşa District.

In 2017, the construction works of "15 November Cyprus University" started, the name symbolizing the establishment date of Northern Cyprus.[3]

"The Düzova Culture and Arts Fest" is annually organized by the Düzova mukhtar.[4][5]
