Latsi Craft Market
Paphos has a number of Craft Markets that pop up from time to time. The last one we went to was in Latsi, and we had our cameras with us to show you what we found...
Start Here
The Craft Market is at the Eastern end of Latsi Harbour, so if you are coming from Polis you can park in the car park before the harbour. During busy times (like August) the centre of Latsi can fill up, so grab a space while you can.
From the car park it is a short walk to the harbour itself, so head towards the boats.
Distant Statue
We wrote an article (and made a film) about Latsi Harbour a while ago, so if you want more information on it, hit the link.
The Market Itself
We've arrived at the market now. It's early doors and will get a lot busier. The next craft market is on the 14th August, from 9AM to 1PM. I mention this on the first page so that even idle browsers will know all the information they need to visit. However, this probably won't stop somebody asking when the next market is...
Let's Check The Stalls
The first stall we visited was selling mosaics. There are a fair number of mosaic makers in Paphos. I guess it follows in the tradition witnessed at the Archaeological Park. The competition means that the standard is very high. These mosaics are by an artist call Guri, who you can contact on 99015044
Close Up
You can pick up some lovely mementos and gifts here.

Paphos Kataklysmos Celebrations
Kataklysmos is a big deal in Cyprus. The whole island celebrates with water festivals, traditional events and numerous other activities. Traditionally the biggest celebrations occur in Larnaca, though every town and city does their bit. Paphos is having its own celebrations, and the Sea Front is teaming with stalls selling allsorts. Over the next few days there are also performances to be enjoyed at Paphos Castle. We went down to the Sea Front to join in the fun.
The Statos - Agios Photios Festival
Among the highlights of late Summer / early Autumn in the Paphos region are the village festivals that are held throughtout the area. Statos - Agios Photios has an annual event, and given that we have already visited the deserted forerunners of the twin village, it seemed only fair that we should check out their offering, to show you that the village is very much alive.

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.
