Polis Seaside Stroll
Meet Antara Palace
If you look on Google Maps, they show nothing here at all. However, Bing Maps is a lot more helpful. Using the Microsoft alternative, we find that this building is actually known as Antara Palace.
More Grounds
Now that we have a name, we can do a bit of online research. Until a few years ago, this used to be a boutique Hotel and Spa. Now it appears to be used as a Wedding Venue. You can hire it on Booking.com if you are interested. You must hire it for at least a week and it is over 2000 euros a night. But it is there if you want it!
That Lawn Again
You can see more of the lawn here. I originally thought it was a putting green but there weren't any holes to see. Plus, the grass isn't really meant for putting.
End Of The Line
I didn't want to get too close to the main building, as I imagine I would be trespassing. So I returned to the beach. I had walked enough in this direction, but here's a final view of Polis and Latchi.
Moody Cloud Shot
It might not have been a sunny day, but the clouds meant that I could still snap some interesting photographs.

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.
