Beyond Fabrica Hill
Ancient Baths
Antiquities are all around. We were surprised at how many.
A New Visitor Centre?
Behind the amphitheatre, some sort of sheltered structure is being built. What will it be? Part of the floor looks like a cattle grid. Is there something interesting to see below it?
More Building
As we walked around we could see more building work. Unfortunately there was nothing to give any indication as to what was going on.
More Baths
When we reached these baths it became clear that we were nowhere near the end of the artifacts. We will cover the area in more depth in a future blog, but we snapped a few shots to whet your appetite.
St Paul's Pillar
These ruins have a different type of walkway, allowing visitors to view the ruins without causing any erosion. I think it detracts a little from the view, but I can't see any better way of allowing access without the place being damaged.

Let's Take a Look At Fabrica Hill
We've driven past Fabrica Hill many times over the years, and often wondered what was up there. (It's the area of land diagonally opposite The Mall, in case you didn't know). After comments and photos started appearing on the forum about the erection of a raised walkway, we decided a visit was overdue. With no expectations of what we would see when we got there, other than a vague feeling of disappointment that despite what it looked like, they weren't building a roller coaster, this is what we found.
Paphos Archaeological Park
When relatives visited us a few weeks ago, we took them to some of the local tourist must-see sites. A definite highpoint was the visit to the Archaeological Park. We were especially lucky because it was spring time and all the wild flowers were in bloom...Good Pages To Visit

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.
