Anthestiria sprint flower festival at yermasoyia, limassol
The annual spring flower festival happens in the yermasogia area near the parking lot. The parking lot is converted into a flower show and there is a parade (a smaller version of the limassol carnival) on the the beach road, with flowers being the theme
The tradition is for the kids on the float to throw the flowers to the onlookers. The people on the side of the streets are very eager to catch the thrown flowers. Probably, they are owners of flower shops and they just want to stock up on the flowers :-). Even Anith managed to catch some flowers. More photos from the parade…

Hi, I love your blog, i think it’s one of the best sources of information on Cyprus on the net, and trust me I’ve done a pretty wide search! Your photos are great too, what camera/lens do you use?
