Below Kritou Tera
Fruity Business
There were also a few orange trees around. The nearby Miliou has an orange festival every year. I'm not sure what will be happening this year though, with regards to summer fairs. There's normally a big one in Statos Agios Fotios soon, but the pandemic may well have put a stop to it. I shall have to check.

Up The Junction
We've continued up the road until we came to this junction. There is a church here, some mail boxes and a bus stop. We've hit the main Choli Strip. We need to turn left here, but first, let's take a look at the church.
The Church
Does just stand here, go in and have a look around.
Odd Shape
This looks unusual. I had assumed it indicated a room above the altar, but now I think the altar is at the other end of the church. So what is in there? Unfortunately I couldn't find out, as the church was locked.

Evretou Dam
Ever since we explored the abandoned villages of Evretou and Trimithousa, we have been meaning to return and have a look at the rest of the reservoir. A chance wrong turn gave us just the opportunity we needed, so off we went. It took us a few visits to get the full picture of the reservoir, but we saw some lovely scenery along the way...Related Pages
MapBelow Kritou Tera
A chance diversion from a scenic route home brought us to write this blog. This is what we love so much about Cyprus. You only need to take a left instead of a right, see where you end up, and take the time to have a look around. Adventure and wonder are just around the corner. And kittens.

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.
