Old Town 2022 Update - Part 1
Paphos is changing! Don't take our word for it though. Take a walk with us around Old Town, and see what's going on. In the first part we concentrate on the area around the Indoor Market, which is undergoing something of a face lift.
Moutallos Mosque
We shall begin our walk behind the mosque in Moutallos. We are starting here because there is a nice big carpark which is normally fairly empty.
Chilling Cats
The carpark also plays host to one of the feeding stations of the Paphos Cat Lady. So it is a good place to see moggies, especially around feeding time.
It's A Hard Life
If you look closely at the cat you will see that it has a little nick on its ear. This indicates that it is a feral cat that has been neutered by a vet. TNR (Track, Neuter, Release) is vital if the feral cat population is to be kept under control. Don't automatically assume that any cat without the nick has not yet been done though. When vets neuter domestic cat they often leave the ears alone.
Spring Blooms
Though the weather is hotting up there is still plenty of colour around. This house is to the left of a new lane that runs from the main Old Town road to the Mosque carpark. You should drive up this if you want to park here, as the older turn further up is now one way.
End Of The Rainbow
Across the road from the mosque we came across the first of many artisan shops selling a variety of art and crafts. We will return to this gentleman later.

Old Paphos is undergoing a transformation. Not only that, but in a few days time, Paphos 2017 will officially get underway. So we thought we would take a last stroll and a few snaps of the area before the transformation is complete.
New Old Paphos
It's been a few months since we last reported on the progress of the Old Paphos Regeneration Scheme.I had to visit the main Cyta Shop recently, and as I had time to kill I decided to take my camera for a stroll, to see how things were progressing. Autumn was in the air and the skies were fairly grey. There was even some rain at some point. However, the pictures will still hopefully show what a wonderful place Old Town Paphos is becoming.

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.
