The History of Paphos in 16 Pictures

[Dominic]

When I was out photographing a new statue in Old Paphos the other week, I stumbled upon a walkway I hadn't seen before. It descended to the lower carpark, by the Turkish Baths. The walkway was adorned with pictures telling the story of Paphos through the ages. Judging by the state of some of the pictures they had obviously been there for some time, but this was the first I had seen of them. Here they are for your perusal...

Thanks for this Dominic.
To my knowledge, the pictures have been there at least 15 years, so you are correct that they have been there for some time.
The blog reminded me of the useful information they reveal.

I was going to say at least 15 years. It used to lead down to the cafe Hamam. The inside of the baths is interesting but seems locked. They used to do weddings there a few years ago.

It was open when I took these pictures, and that was only a couple of weeks ago.

I must have just picked a day when it looked closed. Will try again in April.

I'll be doing a blog about the baths soon, so will need to return to take some snaps. I shall see if I can find some opening hours. Until you said something I assumed it was always open.
