Fabrica Hill in 2023
Fabrica Hill
And this is the view of Fabrica Hill itself. You can see where the new walkway ends. From there you can explore numerous points of interest, including a covered area in the right. This contains a mosaic with an information sign tell you all about it.
Old Entrance
In the past, I used to park down there, by the tree in the foreground. Unfortunately they have now closed that car park. Perhaps it is only opened when they are doing archaeological digs?
New Discoveries
And speaking of digs, I am fairly certain that this area is has been excavated in the not too distant past. One cannot help but wonder what lies beneath this hill. There must be many more ruins, as well as undiscovered catacombs.
My New Parking Spot
So, as I couldn't park there, I drove past the roundabout and headed towards the Sea Front. If you turn right next to the tree with all the ribbons tied to it, you will find another car park right next to the start of the walkway.
Mall View
From there you can use the walkway to get to the top of Fabrica Hill. Alternatively you can cross the road and head up through the catacombs.

Let's Take a Look At Fabrica Hill
We've driven past Fabrica Hill many times over the years, and often wondered what was up there. (It's the area of land diagonally opposite The Mall, in case you didn't know). After comments and photos started appearing on the forum about the erection of a raised walkway, we decided a visit was overdue. With no expectations of what we would see when we got there, other than a vague feeling of disappointment that despite what it looked like, they weren't building a roller coaster, this is what we found.
Beyond Fabrica Hill
A few weeks ago we blogged about Fabrica Hill. We went to find out about the new walkway, and to see what was on the hill. The blog was very popular, but left people chomping at the bit for more. Why didn't you feature the amphitheatre? Where will the walkway end? Why are there never any hedgehogs in your blogs? Most of these questions were asked. So the other day, we went back to find the answers. Not only that, but we also found that most elusive of creatures, an artist's impression of what the walkway will look like when it is complete. So read on to find out...Related Pages
MapFabrica Hill in 2023
A few years ago we took you on a tour around Fabrica Hill. As it is an Archaeological Site you could be forgiven for thinking that it hasn't changed in that time, but you would be wrong. There is still plenty of Archaeology waiting to be discovered there, and every year there are new digs. So how have things changed since we were last there?

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.
