Paphos Life

During my trip around the Old Market this morning, I stumbled upon the opening ceremony of the Mouttalos Project outside the Mosque Hagia Sophia which was a former Byzantine church. For those unaware, Mouttalos is a village next to the Old Market which used to be home to both TCs & GCs. This Cyprus Mail link provides more information on its history & the role it has been given in the Pafos 2017 cultural programme;

First the Mosque
Attendees including the Mayor
More attendees
One of the streets stuck in the Mouttalos time warp
And finally, one of the Central Square (check out the link) which is still a work-in-progress!

Thank you for updated photos of the area. I hope they don't destroy the square completely as for me it was a very nice typical old Cyprus impression to see the people drinking their morning coffee and playing backgammon together whenever I passed there on my way down to TOTK Lidl. I hope they did not remove the old sycamore trees there...
