District of Peace

The Creative District in the Great Liman area, and the former industrial zone of the city, is becoming a District of Peace. In the previous century, this space has been a symbol of modern, industrial, and alternative cultural development, but at the same time, it was a symbol of great losses. Today, the Creative District is becoming a centre of contemporary youth creativity, while programmes we will have a chance to attend within the Fortress of Peace will open a dialogue on current social and political topics.
