Paphos Old Town In 2023 - Part 4
In the fourth part of our tour around Paphos Old Town, we start by visiting Evi at Pumpkin House, before exploring the numerous alleys between there and the front of Old Town. They are still in the process of renovating parts of the area, and along the way we check out how they are getting on...
Pumpkin House
At the end of Part 3 we were gazing towards the yellow building that is Pumpkin House. Now we have crossed the road and are once again in front of its open and inviting doorway. What treasures lie within?

Pumpkin Greeters
We've shown you Pumpkin House before, and we will show you it again soon too. I recorded a separate film where I interviewed Evi to find out what she has been up to. That will be published in a few days, so look out for it.
Gifts For Everybody
There will be an article to go with the film, and a lot more pictures. The short version is that Evi had a stall down at the harbour over the Summer period, and she sold lots of pumpkins and other items, so is busy making more items.
The Spud Man
On leaving Pumpkin House I found myself behind the local spud seller. You get vans like this in every village. A local farmer drives around announcing his produce with a megaphone.
You Need Hands
I have to say, the square outside Pumpkin House is looking very pretty these days.

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.
