Pissouri has been awarded the title of one of the world's best tourist villages, an international recognition shared with Kalopanayiotis, by the United Nations World Tourism Organization (UNWTO). The award ceremony will take place on February 15 in a celebratory event.

According to a statement by the Limassol Tourism Development and Promotion Company (ETAL), which supported the preparation of the application and the evaluation process, Pissouri’s inclusion in the prestigious "Best Tourism Villages" list acknowledges the community’s dedication to sustainable tourism development, local traditions, and environmental preservation.

With this distinction, Pissouri joins an exclusive international network that grants it global recognition and promotion as a prime example of a rural tourism destination. This status also provides the village with opportunities to exchange expertise with other destinations that have successfully implemented best tourism practices.

The official award ceremony will take place on Saturday, February 15, featuring a guided tour for guests to key landmarks in the area. The event will conclude with a cultural celebration, including traditional music and dance performances, as well as local delicacies offered in Pissouri’s central square.
