Kato Paphos Renovations
Published 10th of July, 2022
What Would Gary Say?
No, that dubious honour fell to Linekar's. This is how it looks now. I admit, it isn't very attractive.
Inside
The interior is no better. However, and it is a huge however, compare this to how it used to look...
Six Months Ago
I think you will have to agree that progress has been made. There is still a long way to go, but at least people are doing something now.
Older Adornments
I noticed as I left that some of the exterior floor tilings had been removed. Beneath them were some more tiles, advertising something or possibly showing a previous name for the place. I can work out that the last four letters are MINI, but that's it. Anybody know what used to be here?
One Day...
If anybody reading this knows how I can legally get inside that old bowling alley to take pictures please let me know. I would love to visit.

In the third part of our look around Kato Paphos we turn the spotlight on Bar Street. Loved and loathed in equal measure, the area has certainly seen better days. Indeed, if you visit during the day, as we do in this article, you could be forgiven for thinking that it is closed. But there is still plenty of life there, as you shall see...

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.
