Lemesos 2030
Out there together
three days, seven walks, one city
We connect the pins on the map, trace new routes and activate the public space.
In how many ways can we answer the question: "what kind of city is Limassol?"
Seven new routes invite us to get to know each other, to meet, to connect and, Out There Together, to imagine our lives and reclaim the public space of Limassol.
