Organisers: Management Committee of tenants in Laiki Geitonia - Nicosia (Lefkosia) Municipality
Laiki Geitonia is a traditional neighbourhood inside Lefkosia city walls. A stroll in this pedestrianised area gives the perfect insight into life in the Lefkosia of yesterday with its buildings that date from the 18th century and its narrow winding streets lined with little shops and craft workshops.
