Geroskipou Neapolis Is Coming
What's On The Left?
That would mean that anything on the left hand of this picture will be outside the Neapolis. This includes the area of the Shrine Caves, which is understandable, but an awful lot of open countryside as well.
On The Right
Whereas the area to the right of the road, which is currently mostly farmland and hidden necropolis, will be transformed.
Mystery Junctions
If this area isn't being used though, why are they building all these junctions to it?
The Other End
I was curious to see how much access was available at the other end of the site. The answer was not a lot. This road was closed. I know you can drive through those cones but a sign on the left prohibits all vehicles, bicycles and pedestrians. So unless you are pretty nimble on a pogo stick, it is a no-go area.
We made our way to the other end of that road, and unsurprisingly it was closed there too.

MapGeroskipou Neapolis Is Coming
Way back in 2019 we reported on an area of Geroskipou which was going to be the site of a new Business DIstrict called the Neapolis. At the time we were interested in a necropolis that was hidden in the woods there. Now, in 2025 they appear to have started construction, so we took the drone down to see what was happening.

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.
