Agiou Andreou (St. Andrew’s) Street connects the castle, the historical heart of the city, with Limassol’s Central Park.
The city center is always a complicated concept, and the main streets change frequently. Old British Limassol, which was just finding its industrial footing, considered this street to be the main street until the 1970s — it’s a long, confident street, with many shops, taverns, warehouses, churches. The Limassol Municipal Library is also located on Agiou Andreou.
That’s how, after walking a few hundred meters, you have already experienced the architecture of Art Deco, Modernism, Neo-Brutalism. As you walk down Agiou Andreou Street, the views of the huge houses open up on the right. Imagine that only 60 years ago the sea was splashing by these concrete buildings with their backs turned to us — no beach or promenades existed then.
