Paphos Coast Path - Part 6 - Paphos Castle to Lighthouse Beach
Mystery Pillars

There was a bit of a hoo-ha recently, as a number of art installations had gone missing around Paphos. One of the was The Saw. Well they quite obviously found it again, and gave it a paint job.
Now, does anybody know what these three small piles are a remnant of? Was there a pier here, back in the day?

More Future Shade

I initially wondered the the whole walkway wasn't treelined to prevent shade. Well I guess it would cost more, and in reality would be a bit of overkill. Provided they appear at regular intervals they should provide enough shade for people who need it.
Driftwood

Some major pieces of driftwood had been washed ashore. Would this make good firewood, once dry?
Coo!

Unless I am very much mistaken, this was a Laughing Dove. I am no twitcher though, so feel free to correct me.
Ancient Ruins

Behold the House of Ortheus and the Villa of Theseus. Which begs the question, what is the difference between a house and a villa? A quick google would suggest that villas were a bit posher.

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.
