Modern shops and offices stand beside traditional coffee shops and old stores, adjacent streets with traffic lights mix together with small roads that are towered over by old venetian style houses, old women wearing the traditional black garb, men sitting outside the local coffee shops playing back gammon while the younger generation goes by in the latest fashions, beautifully constructed modern day churches overlook the old and crumbling architecture of the older worshiping grounds that house fading mosaics, a drink of coffee in a modern cafe whilst listening to the afternoon church service and the harmonious church bells as they ring out across the old square. This is Paralimni.
Where the old and the new seem to work in harmony. Where one has the advantages of a traditional village and the conveniences of a contemporary town. Only minutes away from the busy resorts of Protaras and Ayia Napa and the closest beach being with in walking distance. This is Paralimni
The largest town in the eastern southern fringe of Cyprus, there is nothing you can't find here.
Warm smiles will greet you everywhere. This is Paralimni. |
