Paphos Old Town in 2023 - Part 2
Aphrodite's Children
When you come to the main road you will find yourself standing opposite what is probably the most well known and popular mural in Paphos. Aphrodite's Children is a real work of art, and it is nice to see that they seem to be preserving it.
Keeping Old Town Beautiful!
If you turn left here you will soon see what I mean. They are renovating the building behind the mural, but they are keeping the wall intact. This is why you shouldn't procrastinate when it comes to visiting the murals of Old Town Paphos. You can't be sure how long they will be around for. There will be an example of that soon...
Rizokarpaso Fish Tavern
Walking up from the mural you soon come to this fish restaurant.
Old School Old Town
There is a junction on the opposite side of the road, where you will find this old building with a front door that just oozes history. It looks nice but you can see why the area needed renovating!
Absent Friends
Looking back from the fish restaurant you will see this mural, and an alley leading back to the Confectionary Cafe. There used to be another mural here, on a wall that no longer exists. Not every mural is as lucky as Aphrodite's Children. Having said that, the area that replaces the mural is now lovely, and much better than what it used to be like.

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.
