Review of 2023
Carnival Time
At the end of February the Carnival made its annual return to Paphos. This year it was held up in central Paphos, finishing at Kennedy Square.
Paphos Seafront Surprise
In March, there was a big surprise down at the Seafront and Harbour. Overnight, the area was fenced off, and the road becamed pedestrianised. Not only that, but virtually all of the signage was taken down. It was the start of several months of organised chaos.
Paphos Walkway Surprise
And it didn't stop at the Seafront either. The Walkway between the Castle and Lighthouse Beach was also closed for renovations.
Kiniras Hotel
Away from the hubbub at the Seafront, I visited this lovely hotel in the heart of Old Town.
Polemi Tulip Festival
Springtime in Paphos is a joy to behold. The countryside is awash with colour and looks completely different to the golden brown hues that Summer Tourists will be used to. In Polemi they have an annual Tulip Festival in honour of the unique species of tulip which grows in the surrounding fields.

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.
