Paphos Easter 2023
Cyprus is a Greek Orthodox Country and considers Easter to be the most important date in the year. Not only that, but the Greek Orthodox calendar is slightly different to the Anglican one, so Easter is celebrated a week later this year. And celebrate it they do, complete with Easter Decorations similar to what you are used to at Christmas. Here is a selection of what you can currently see.
Stadium Roundabout
We shall begin our adventure at the roundabout near the Stadium and the old Super Home location. You can see a chicken and egg in the foreground, and a couple of bunnies in the distance.
The Town Hall
There are some more eggs by the Town Hall along with a baby chick in a nest.
Turned Out Nice
While I was wandering through the Square I couldn't help but admire how nice it was looking in the Spring sunshine.
I Want To Break Free
There are a variety of themes used in the roadside displays. Most of them centre on chicks and eggs, though you will see the occasional bunny. There is also a bizarre one which looks like a folded breast of chicken. I've never been able to work that out.
Kennedy Square
The basket of eggs in Kennedy Square looked particularly spiffing. The best decorations were however, waiting for us in a covered environment.
