A beautiful sunny day in Limassol, Cyprus, perfect for a long walk and enjoying this gorgeous city by the Mediterranean Sea... I had the idea to explore many parts of the city where I haven't been before, but unfortunately, the weather changed quickly, and the rain spoiled the walk... Nevertheless, it's just another reason to return, and I believe you will also enjoy this brief May stroll...
Limassol is a vibrant city on the southern coast of Cyprus and serves as the capital of the Limassol district. It's the second-largest urban area in Cyprus after Nicosia, boasting an urban population of 195,139 and a district population of 262,238 as of 2021.
The city is known for its rich history, with roots stretching back to ancient Greek cities. Its historical center revolves around the medieval Limassol Castle and the Old Port. Today, Limassol has grown beyond these historical landmarks, extending along the Mediterranean coast.
Limassol is also a hub for festivals and sports, and in 2014, it was ranked by TripAdvisor as the 3rd up-and-coming destination in the world. The city offers a high quality of life and was classified as a "Gamma" global city in the 2020 ranking published by the Globalization and World Cities Research Network.
In recent developments, Limassol opened the largest integrated casino resort in Europe in 2023, featuring a 14-story building with 500 rooms and the island's largest pool area.
For those who love the outdoors, Limassol provides a perfect setting with its mild climate, beautiful coastline, and countryside. It's an ideal place for walking, hiking, and cycling, with many trails and paths to explore. #Limassol #LimassolCyprus #LimassolMarina
