Every year we listen very carefully to our citizens, our tourists, but also to the entrepreneurs about the problems they face and we set the respective priorities. Our goal of the year is for everyone to be much happier than the green in Ayia Napa ".

The 15,000 and more trees that will be planted have been ordered by the Department of Forests and these are trees that are resistant to the temperatures prevailing in Cyprus and the whole program is under the supervision of a qualified agronomist.
