Old Town 2022 Update - Part 1
Indoor Market - Entrance Number 1
From the main road we entered the pedestrianised area, next to Entrance Number 1 of the Indoor Market. Now, looking at this picture, you could be forgiven for wondering why it is called an indoor market.
Raising The Roof
This is what the walkway used to look like. The market was indeed indoor, but I hadn't appreciated before that the roof was separate. I had always assumed, wrongly, that the indoor market had been built as an indoor market. Instead, they have taken a regular road and put a roof on it.
I don't know why this surprised me. Before moving to Cyprus, I lived near Camberley, in Surrey. The main shopping centre there used to be open. They turned it into a Mall by adding a roof and putting in a few bits of panelling.
The Place
This is another of the Art and Craft type shops that Old Paphos does so well.
Close Up
For a change, our daughter, Francesca was on close-up duty, instead of Alex. It is always interesting to walk a route with somebody else to see what catches their eye.
Inside
There are lot of nice products available inside, and also a workshop area where I think they may have been giving lessons. If I am wrong, please correct me.

New Old Paphos
It's been a few months since we last reported on the progress of the Old Paphos Regeneration Scheme.I had to visit the main Cyta Shop recently, and as I had time to kill I decided to take my camera for a stroll, to see how things were progressing. Autumn was in the air and the skies were fairly grey. There was even some rain at some point. However, the pictures will still hopefully show what a wonderful place Old Town Paphos is becoming.

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.
