Paphos Life

Fabrica Hill is situated next to Kings Avenue Mall and the Archaeological Park. It is easy to overlook it on your way down to the Sea Front, but since they have constructed the Paphos Bridge it is now easy to get to. In this film we start at the base of the walkway and follow it to the top of Fabric...

As a storm was forecast (and indeed, appeared) for today, I decided instead to fly my drone up the Coral Bay Strip yesterday, on Saturday 4th May. Since last week they have laid a huge amount of tiles. Don't take our word for it though. We have included a clip from last week's film at the end so you...

Woof!

Pomos is a lovely village.

In this film we drive down the Paphos Hotel Strip from Riccos Beach all the way to Paphos Sea Front. Note that you can now drive easily to the Castle along Poseidonos Avenue.

Judging by the number of kids hanging around churches today I don't think they have any trouble in associating Easter with Religion.

Not only that but one of the selling points was that it would make the inland villages more attractive as places to live for Cypriots wanting to work in Limassol.

We post a daily "Kalimera" picture to Facebook on a topical theme. I thought it would be nice to give them greater exposure, so have combined them into a monthly article. The pictures here are now viewable in their original Landscape glory. So take a look at a selection of pictures we feel...

It is Easter in Paphos, so we went for a walk around the main Mall, to see how it was decorated. Come and take a look.

Well don't use it then.

In Cyprus Easter is a bigger deal than Christmas, and they have the decorations to prove it. We went out and about around the Paphos District to check out what this year's adornments were like.

Reasd the article and chat about it below...

This article, even if you read it 3 times, tells you nothing why there is a delay, only talks about meetings and meetings... Some weeks ago I was reading in the press, that the contractor wants nearly 3 years more time and extra 22 million Euros extra money for farious reasons. I already questioned...

I think your assumption is flawed. You are underestimating the amount of people who will use it as a quicker route to Limassol.

They have been busy on Poseidonos Avenue and the road behind Papantoniou's at the Sea Front. You can now drive in both directions on it again. This makes navigating Kato Paphos a lot easier. In this short film we start at the Harbour and drive down the newly open road before heading up through Bar S...

The villages of the Akamas are well worth exploring. Filled with both charm and informative museums you are sure to find something to make your trip worthwhile. The scenery alone is worth it, as you shall see in this film that takes us the Pano and Kato Arodes before driving through Ineia and Droush...

Cypriots love their coffee, and they have the Coffee Shops to prove it. In a village, they have the same prominance as the local pubs that used to form such a part of UK rural life. So for a coffee shop to grab our attention sufficiently to warrant an article, it must be pretty special. Step forward...

I was experimenting with our 360 camera the other day. We aren't allowed to fly the drone near St Nicholas Chapel on the Coastal Boardwalk, because of its proximity to Paphos Airport. So I wanted to see what would happen if I stuck the camera on top of a long selfie stick. This is the resulting film...

The only work I have seen done recently is right at the top, where the motorway will rejoin the B7. Other than that there doesn't appear to be any progress at the moment.
