Get to know Lefkosia by walking

Since 1987 Lefkosia Municipality organizes series of thematic walking tours on certain days of the week.

These walking tours have proved to be good means in getting the foreign visitors better acquainted with the old part of Lemesos.

Througout the years the tours have been adjusted and developed to include new locations, some even outside the old city.

It is widely accepted that walking tours convey the real feeling of a place and contributes to its cultural development.
