Limassol Old Town

Limassol is a busy, lively and modern city, but in its urban sprawl lies its ancient heart, the ancient city of Limassol, also known as Lemisos, this city whose stones testify to the richness of history. The city is characterized by winding cobblestone streets, ancient castles and smooth sandstone buildings. The Old Town still has a medieval feel, filled with the scent of warm herbs and fresh bread drifting from the ancient entrances, and is the place to discover more about the history and culture of this part of Cyprus, and escape the crowds for a few hours too.
