Hello one and all,
Any helpful directions on the best way to get to the Muse?
Unsure of the road closures or one way system.
Have been to the Muse many times before so know how to find it once I get to the side streets.
Coming from Peyia.
Many thanks! Enjoy the lovely day.

Coming from The Mall, before you get to George's Opticians, there is a car park on the left, by a bank.
Park your car there, and cross the main road, heading towards the traffic lights. Soon you will see an alley going up the hill, with a hotel on one side of it. I believe there are signs there to the Muse, and if you walk up that alleyway, you will soon find yourself there.

Add to that the steps going up the alleyway have been drizzled with paint which is a giveaway! Beware though, the steps are steep & there are plenty of them!

The hotel signposted is Axiothea which is situated near Muse. Never fancied the steps as I thought I might look at wreck by the time I'd climbed up there!

You make it sound like a mountain climb.

Up the stairs, on the left, in fact opposite the front door of the hotel, is the entrance to the pretty little municipal gardens. A nice spot to sit and relax, summer or winter. And it's home to the municipal art gallery.

Love all the stairs photo- truly beautiful!
Found the Muse following the instruction given. On the first attempt.
Had a lovely meal with friends. Food and service excellent.
Must have been over 12 months since we have eaten here. Still one of our favorite places.
