This month's picture · written by AI from the figures on this pageΟ Δήμος Παρανεστίου είναι ένας ήσυχος, αραιοκατοικημένος τόπος της Ανατολικής Μακεδονίας και Θράκης, με λίγες επιχειρήσεις σε σχέση με τους κατοίκους του, όπου η καθημερινή ζωή συχνά συναντιέται στα καφέ και τα μπαρ. Τα εστιατόρια είναι σπανιότερα από ό,τι στην υπόλοιπη χώρα, ενώ μέσα στον τελευταίο χρόνο άνοιξαν 5 νέες επιχειρήσεις χωρίς να κλείσει καμία, κάτι που αξίζει μια πιο προσεκτική ματιά.
