Richard the Lionheart visited the city of Limassol, during the Crusades, to free his betrothed from the rule of the Byzantines. Their wedding is still considered a legend and perhaps that why modern Limassol has a throbbing nightlife and joie de vivre. Plus the fact that Limassol is the winemaking centre on the island only makes the fact more intoxicating!
Lacking in any architectural or cultural heritage, the city does offer many excellent hotels thereby providing a good base for tourists to visit nearby places. One such destination is the foothills of the Troodos Mountains, which lie north of the city, offer charming country walks that meander through friendly villages. Some good beaches on the outskirts such as the sandy beach of Avmidou, is beautiful.
If you are looking for a good real estate investment, then Limassol property is an ideal choice. Choose from spacious modern apartments, houses, town houses, stylish villas and plots of land in the some of the most beautiful and picturesque areas and where you will be able to relax and enjoy in one of the most beautiful parts of the world.
