Check out ths Eco Art Show at the Shrine Caves!
We visited the Ayios Georgios Shrine Caves quite a while ago, but returned recently to make a virtual tour. We were pleasently surprised when we did so to find that the area now hosted an outdoor Eco Art Exhibition. This place is really worth checking out, and makes a lovely walk.
The Shrine Caves
We blogged about the shrine caves some time ago. They are well worth a visit if you are in the area, and now more than ever.
Public Nature, Private Culture
Now, from September to the end of the year, there is an art exhibition here as well! Let's take a look around.
Here, Kitty
First we have to pay homage to the cats.
Cat in a Pram
This made me smile, there was a baby buggy here which had a sleeping cat in it. We were at the location for a couple of hours, while we made the tour, and when we left, the buggy was still there, with a different cat in it. So perhaps it is always there, and is designed for moggies?
The Church
This is the Ayios Georgios church itself. The image is a still shot from the tour, which is why it is a bit fuzzy. On the tour you can rotate the image 360 degrees and see what is behind you.

St George's Church and Shrine Caves
Near the shops on the Paphos / Geroskipou border, is a little track that runs below a cliff through some farmland. A sign indicates that there is a church down there, so one day I thought I would investigate. Sure enough, there was a little church, but there was so much more besides...
Geroskipou Sculpture Park
As part of Pafo2017, a new Sculpture Park was commissioned in Geroskipou. Inspired by local history, legends and traditions, ten Cypriot and foreign sculptors have created on-site works drawing on the history of the area and, in this way, leaving behind them the traces of the European Capital of Culture. That's what the blurb says anyway. So what are they like?

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.
