Old Town Paphos From Above
New Bus Station And Markideio Theatre
Here's a better shot of the bus station. They have done a good job and there is a coffee shop in there too. This will not come as a surprise to anybody who lives here!
Moutallos Mosque
Our car park of choice lies behind the Moutallos Mosque. There is also a feeding station for the Paphos Cat Lady and if you are lucky you may get to meet her!
Old Town Market
Believe it or not, but this is what the Old town Market looks like from above. You can see the bus stop at the top of the shot. To the left of that and down a bit is the Green Living Wall. And to the right of that, the market begins in earnest. A few years ago, the walls to the front of the picture were adorned with a fantastic mural, but the owner was a bit of a philistine and had them painted over. It was a terrible waste, but fortunately Millo, the artist, forgave Cyprus and painted a beautiful tower in Geroskipou to make up for the loss.
Caffe Nero
You have a choice of coffee shops near this viewpoint. Caffe Nero is under that grey circle, but on the other side of the road where the bus is you will find an artisan coffee shop which is definitely worth a visit. To the right of both of them you can see the Ottoman Baths.
Ibrahim's Khan
Ibrahim's Khan is a lovely place to visit, but is easy to overlook from above. The shades hide most of the activities, though the outdoor theatre is a convenient landmark.

After our recent series on Old Town came to a close I thought it would be nice to take an alternate view of the area from above. We will be able to see the changes from a different perspective. I have also taken the opportunity to summarise the various Old Town films we have produced, so you can now find them all in one place.

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.
