This month's picture · written by AI from the figures on this pageΗ Αλμωπία είναι ήσυχος τόπος με αγροτική παραγωγή και βιομηχανία στον πυρήνα της, όπου ξεχωρίζουν καλλιέργειες, φωτοβολταϊκά και οικοδομικά υλικά, ενώ εστιατόρια, κοσμηματοπωλεία και φωτογράφοι σπανίζουν. Οι επιχειρήσεις είναι πολλές για τον πληθυσμό, και αξίζει μια πιο προσεκτική ματιά η ζωντάνια που δείχνουν οι τέχνες, το θέατρο και ο πολιτισμός.
