This month's picture · written by AI from the figures on this pageΗ Νέα Ζίχνη είναι ένας ήσυχος δήμος με χαρακτήρα βιομηχανίας και εμπορίου, όπου ξεχωρίζουν τα φωτοβολταϊκά, οι καλλιέργειες και τα καθημερινά μαγαζιά της γειτονιάς, από φούρνους μέχρι κρεοπωλεία και μανάβικα. Τα εστιατόρια είναι λιγότερα από ό,τι συνήθως, οι επιχειρήσεις αραιότερες από ό,τι σε έναν τυπικό δήμο της περιφέρειας, ενώ ζωντάνια δείχνει η επισκευή και εγκατάσταση μηχανημάτων.
