The First Lady Philippa Karsera Christodoulides and the spouse of the prime minister of Greece, Mareva Mitsotaki, were given a guided tour of the historic neighbourhoods of Ayios Kassianos and Chrysaliniotissa in Nicosia’s old city on Monday.
At a meal hosted by the First Lady, she underlined the fraternal relations of Cyprus and Greece which are based on the long shared history and culture of the two countries.
The tour was the first opportunity for Mrs Mitsotaki to walk in Nicosia and see firsthand the buffer zone and crossing points.
The pair also visited workshops of female artists in the area.
