Paphos Walkway renovations - July Update
Work In Progress...
It is worth noting that while this area is still not finished, it would be possible to let people walk here. I noticed when I filmed Venus Beach and Tomb of the Kings the other day that people could still walk along the path. If they could get this walkway into such a state soon then I am sure people would be less critical of it being closed. Mind you, I guess having it closed has meant that they have been able to perform the work more quickly, so it is swings and roundabouts.
Finished Path?
This section, indeed virtually all of the actual path, now looks complete.
Another Viewpoint
They still need to finish off this viewpoint, which I assume will look like the other one we just saw. Other than that though, the majority of the remaining work seems to be at the castle.
Ancient Wall
I managed to get a better shot of part of the ancient city wall they uncovered during the work. From what I read it is around 4 - 5m deep, which is a big wall!
Lighthouse Beach Renovations
Finally we have a view of Lighthouse Beach. They are doing some renovations there as well, though the car park is still accessible.
If you are missing your daily walk, take some consolation that unless you are down here at 7AM, it is far too hot to walk along it at the moment anyway!

This is simply not the case. Come see for yourself...

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.
