Clean Up Paphos!
I Don't Think So
I took this picture not because of the church, but because of the sign to Santa Barbara Hills Park. We featured this a year ago in one of our blogs, as it is has not yet been finished. Building work seems to have halted, and there are a lot of skeletal buildings lining the hills.
Turn Here
Anyway, we left the Ezousa Valley by that church, and made it up onto the main road. They are currently resurfacing it but should have finished by the time you read this. You need to cross the main road and turn right at these signs.
Distant Green Point
The track is suitable for all vehicles, and I think you can also approach the Green Point from the industrial centre. You are heading to the fenced area on the left.
Recycling in Paphos!
And there you have it! When you arrive you will be greeted by a person who takes your details: your car numberplate, your name, and where you live. They also examine your items and tell you where they need to go. They help with heavy items too.
The skips are nicely spaced, and there is plenty of room. The site is kept scrupulously clean by the employees.
Green Waste
It does pong a bit here though, but the nearby goat and chicken farms may also have something to do with that.

Tsada The Scenic Way
The usual way to get to Tsada from Paphos is to drive straight up the B7. Occasionally though, we prefer to take a scenic route. There are some nice rock formations along the way too, so we decided it would be a perfect candidate for a blog. It's also worth knowing that you don't have to rely on the B7 to get you up that hill!
Adonis Viewpoint
Last week, before the dust arrived and the storms chased the dust away (hopefully), we went exploring through the countryside between Adonis Baths and Akoursos. We were trying to get as close as we could to the Akoursos Cave, but a wrong turn plonked us in the middle of nowhere. I went off to hide a geocache, leaving my wife alone with the camera. This is a guest blog by my lovely wife. Well, she took the photos, anyway. I'm afraid you will have to rely on me for the actual commentary...
Chrysochou
Chrysochou lies nestled between Goudi and Polis, on the North West Coast of Cyprus. From the B7, where you will most likely have seen it, it is notable for the well preserved mosque that dominates its skyline. But Chrysochou has other points of interest, and a few surprises should your curiosity entice you to explore, including a fully restored water mill!
The Drive To Adonis Baths
Yesterday we posted a film showing the drive to Adonis Baths. It provoked a lot of comment, so here is the accompanying blog which will hopefully answer any questions.Good Pages To Visit

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.
