A unique and fun treasure hunt taking place next Sunday, May 8, is aimed at bringing together Greek and Turkish Cypriots, as well as people from other communities, to explore and discover the old city of Nicosia. Cash prizes are also up for grabs with €400 for the winning group, €200 and €100 for the second and third groups respectively.
Participants will be allocated into groups where they will then have to complete several tasks and challenges. By solving the various riddles the groups will be discovering the old city, while also collecting all the rainbow colours from seven different stations. The groups will have to collect all seven colours of the rainbow to win.
The event, “United Colours of Lefkosia,” will kick off at the “Home for Cooperation” opposite the Ledra Palace Hotel in the buffer zone, between 2.30pm and 3pm with registrations. The treasure hunt itself will start at 3pm and end at 7pm. It will be followed by an awards ceremony and a party at the Home.
“United Colours of Lefkosia” is organised by Youth for Exchange and Understanding Cyprus, in cooperation with the Greek and Turkish Cypriot Teachers’ Platform. The event is being launched as part of the Inauguration Festivities for the “Home for Cooperation.” The Home will act as an educational and cultural centre and was initiated by the “Association for Historical Dialogue and Research.”
