The old town
Limassol is the heart of the city with its narrow
streets radiating
out from the old fishing harbour. The medieval Lemesos
castle was the site of a royal wedding in the Middle Ages
between Richard the Lionheart, King of England, and Berengaria
of Navarre, and now houses the Cyprus Medieval Museum.
The town has grown in recent years and now covers a
15 kilometres coastline lined with hotels and apartment
blocks, interspersed with eucalyptus groves and linked
by a promenade popular with walkers or joggers.
The
city's inhabitants are renowned for their love
of fun so not surprisingly the city's nightlife is
varied. All sorts of tavernas, discos and clubs
are
open all
the year round, while beach bars along the
coastal walkway add to the choice. Join in the Bacchian
excesses
at the
Wine Festival in September, or have fun at
the Carnival with its fancy dress chariot parade
and
parties in February.
