Re: The Rebirth of the Berengaria Hotel

Glad you enjoyed it. It was fascinating being shown around the project, and I hope to visit other sites that bbf are working on. I was impressed with the company and their work ethic.

Re: The Rebirth of the Berengaria Hotel

Now you can see the whole tour! You will need about 50 minutes to watch it all, so make a coffee first.

The Rebirth of the Berengaria Hotel

The Berengaria Hotel in the Troodos Mountains has been abandoned for nearly 40 years. Now though, it is being reborn. I was lucky enough to be given a guided tour of the site by BBF, the company who is responsible for the renovation. There will be a full film of the tour along soon, but in this arti...

Paphos Sea Front At Dusk

Now that the nights are drawing in more quickly, it seemed appropriate to have a film of the Sea Front just before night falls. The air is full of potential energy, so go out and enjoy the craic.

Re: First rain next weekend?

Yes I was amazed at how quickly the Asprokremmos went from being pretty full to pretty empty this year.

Regarding the forecasts, it isn't the first time rain has been predicted. We tend to get a bit but most of Paphos seems to miss it.

Coral Bay Unseen Coastline

After our recent film of the linear park at Coral Bay, a number of people contacted us saying that you can actually go right at the bridge by the beach. So, to put matters right, we went back, and did indeed go right at the bridge by the beach. This is what we found... https://www.youtube.com/watch?...

Re: Paqphos Park Of Colours

That's daft. They wpuld be much better off pricing the cafeteria at market rate and maintaining the park with their existing teams. Actually if you read the article in full it states: The licensee will undertake the obligation of maintaining and, when necessary, upgrading the entire park while retai...

Re: 2 tons of garbage collected by cleaning campaign Paphos harbour

I imagine they cleared the area behind the Sea Front and Papantoniou's to get most of their rubbish.

Paqphos Park Of Colours

Paphos Park Of Colours can be found behind the Central Papantoniou's Supermarket in Paphos. It provides a peaceful oasis for you to relax or go for a gentle stroll. The playground is very popular with the local kids, while older ones can use the nearby skatepark. There is even a climbing wall. Coupl...

That's not bad at all. If I order from amazon.de the minimum postage tends to be 15 - 20 euros.

Re: Paphos Ochi Day Celebrations And Parade

Yes I was quite lucky. They had built a raised plinth for the press and I managed to get a foothold on the steps up to it. To be honest I hadn't gone there expecting to film a parade or anything, so I was winging it. I could have posted a lot more footage, but most of it was very similar, compared t...

Paphos Ochi Day Celebrations And Parade

Ochi Day is a Public Holiday in Greece and Cyprus, and celebrates the day that Greece said NO to Italy's demands in 1940, plunging them into the Second World War. In this film we start at Caffe Nero in Old Paphos and walk up to Kennedy Square. We didn't know what to expect, but found they were waiti...

Coral Bay to Kathikas in 360!

Today we have a look around the suburbs of Coral Bay before driving up the main Strip and into Peyia. From there we ascend through Pykni Forest and some beautiful countryside before finishing in the picturesque village of Kathikas. All in glorious 360.
