Kato Paphos Part 1
Useful Toilets
It is worth noting these public toilets on the way through. They are just behind the Port Authority building.
Back To The Fifties
The Port Authority Building looks like it has been here a while. I think you can see it here on the centre left. You can see a few cranes here too. Presumably there were used to load and unload goods.
Sea Food
We've reached the food now. As you would expect from a harbour, there is a predominance of seafood in the restaurants.
Fishy On The Dishy
I have no idea what fish these are. I'm more of a cod or haddock man myself. Actually that's not strictly true. I love smoked haddock but it is difficult to come by in Cyprus and I never see it at a restaurant. I like most fish, to be honest. What I can't abide is squid or - God forbid - octopus.
Prawn Stars
My first experience of a prawn was in a late 70s prawn cocktail. I was a child and I wasn't at all convinced by the big white maggots covered in pink veins. I tended to opt for the equally ubiquitous ham and melon if I had the option.

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

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.
