Paphos Walkway Is Open!
Published 3rd of July, 2022
Towards The Mall
The first thing I noticed was how nice it was inside. I had spent years looking at the brown outer layer, and wondered what it would be like to walk along. Well, inside is a silver coloured metal framework. And below that is a layer of gravel, so altogether it looks very nice. If you were walking across the bridge at the height of the sun, you might want to touch the rail before putting your hand full on it. I imagine it can get quite hot.
New Vistas
The first thing you appreciate when you start walking along the bridge are all the new views that you have.
Towards Geroskipou
They appear to be doing some renovations to that church, too.
Drone View
I took these pictures fairly early this morning - Sunday 3rd July.
Walk This Way
The bridge is very well built and felt robust. I can't see it suffering any of the problems the Thames Footbridge suffered!

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.
Beyond Fabrica Hill
A few weeks ago we blogged about Fabrica Hill. We went to find out about the new walkway, and to see what was on the hill. The blog was very popular, but left people chomping at the bit for more. Why didn't you feature the amphitheatre? Where will the walkway end? Why are there never any hedgehogs in your blogs? Most of these questions were asked. So the other day, we went back to find the answers. Not only that, but we also found that most elusive of creatures, an artist's impression of what the walkway will look like when it is complete. So read on to find out...

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.
