Muntyan's Labyrinth - Walking Tour

[Dominic]

We like Muntyan. He spent ages putting this together, and it is marvelous. You can find it between Pissouri and Limassol, next to Melanda Beach. There will be a full article and drone film along soon, but as a taster, enjoy this walking tour.

I first came across this years ago, when only the 1st circle was there. It's been great to revisit over the years and see the progress, I find it fascinating. Some of the rocks are quite red/coppery, so I presume he brought those from elsewhere in Cyprus as the local rocks aren't that colour. I

I wonder if much more will be added or he's just about finished?

I never knew the name though, so thanks for that.

And I highly recommend Melanda restaurant if you're visiting the labyrinth, especially if you like fish/seafood - such a lovely setting and fab food. It's a lovely beach for a swim too, especially if you like beaches which don't get deep quickly.

Wow.. stunning..

so much work.. but great results.. i for one intend to go and see..

As an aside .. i too have always felt that labrinths far to frequently get confused with mazes..The Minotaur (opera) is the most irrating example of a maze being misnamed a labrinth but i haved always hoped that was down to a miss translation...

Going off on a tangent.. There is an amazing display on the london underground.. see link

https://art.tfl.gov.uk/labyrinth/

just about every london underground station has a poster of a different labrinth somewhere in the station.. amusingly they are quite often not in obvious locations within the station..

And all the posters are numbered.. in the order that the station was passed through on the record breaking visit to every underground station in 24 hours that someone held when this art work was installed..

so the entire underground becomes a labrinth ... taking nerdiness to new hights.. i love this arwork and although i am unlikely to see the whole of it, I also love the thought of it...

And Yep.. not a single one of these labrinths is a maze

I no longer feel like a lone wolf, crying into the abyss.

Thank you Dominic

Someone has spent thousands of hours creating these labyrinths which are absolutely amazing - a great talent evidently loves what’s he/she is doing with all the planting and stone edges - a definite visit

[Dominic]

There wil be a blog along in the next day or two with more info on the place.

For those not in the know, where exactly is this located?

[Yioula]

Dominic does explain in the video

If you know where Melanda Beach Restaurant/ Melanda Bay is Avdimou coast road follow the signs to Melanda Beach Restaurant but don’t take the left turning carry to the Restaurant carry on the track very carefully if not in a 4x4

I hope that’s correct if not I’m sure Dominic will be kind enough to correct me

[Dominic]

Yes, I say where it is in the video. Also, there will be a blog along in the next day or two with more information. It is only useful if you actually read it though.
