Vasiliko Necropolis
Published 4th of July, 2021
Towards The Road
In a lot of cities, a place like this would be a star attraction.
Interlinked Chambers
You can't see clearly from here, but if you go through that central door you arrive in the other chamber.
Hard Work
How long did it take to carve all this out of the rock?
Work In Progress
I guess that was going to be another chamber. I wonder why they stopped?
Worth A Visit
So there you have it. If you are in the area, why not park your car up and have a look? It is the perfect way to chill out after a harrowing visit to the Electricity Board.

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
