On the northern side of the peninsula of Kastoria, opposite the mountainous area of Vitsi, lies the picturesque area of Apozari. Among the traditional and picturesque buildings of the area stands the square Apozari. With the lake stretching out in front of it, the square is ideal for relaxation, especially after an enjoyable walk around the lake. A characteristic feature of the square is an example of a Kastorian Ship, exhibited in the centre of the square, as well as a statue of a pair of swans. The square is used for a variety of events by the association and the Municipality of Kastoria, such as a fish festival, a summer cinema, events related to the Kastorian Carnival (Ragoutsaria) and various other cultural events, while at Easter the Rodani (improvised swing) is set up.
