Paphos Museum March Update
Protected Trees
It is also worth noting that the existing trees are forming part of the new design.
Meanwhile In Old Paphos...
As the drone was in the air, I took the opportunity to get some nice pictures of the surrounding city. This picture shows Kennedy Square in the foreground with the main part of Old Town behind it. The last time I took a shot like this all the Christmas Lights were out. Soon there will be Easter decorations here.
October 28 Square
Does anybody know what the purpose of the lines is on the Square? They extend across the road, so must mean something.
Ivis Maliotou Park
Here's a nice view of Ivis Maliotou Park, with the Archaeological Park and Lighthouse in the far distance.
Monument To Greek Independence
It is fitting, on Greek Independence Day, that our final shot should feature the new Monument to Greek Independence, at the far end of the Municipal Park.
I am sure when the Museum is finished that it will be an absolutely fantastic experience. So watch this space for future updates...

Kennedy Square Renovations Update - September 2024
You may recall that the Old Police Station in Kennedy Square is being renovated. It will eventually become the Paphos Historical Documentation Centre. This sounds a bit dry but it refers to the Historical Past of Paphos, rather than piles of old documents. There will also be lovely gardens and walkways. It is now September and the project isn't due to be completed until mid next year, but we thought we would let the drone give you an idea as to how they are progressing...Related Pages

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.
