Lemesos (Limassol) has been known as the city of celebrations since ancient times and continues to uphold its reputation as the festive centre of the island.
It is a lively and vibrant place, perfect for a relaxing beach break or leisurely exploring historical sites. Lemesos has always been a popular destination for visitors who enjoy exciting events and social gatherings, from the wedding of Richard, the Lionheart, to the feasts in honour of ancient deities. Situated between two large city kingdoms of ancient times – Amathous and Kourion – the area boasts significant archaeological status. The town in between is modern and diverse, providing a variety of coastal stripes, shopping options, drinking and dining establishments, and entertainment venues.
