Tidying Up
Somebody is also keeping an eye on the old cemetery. All this area has been cleared of scrub. You can tell this by comparing pictures. You see that grey tomb by the tree on the left of the picture?

This is what it looked like 8 years ago.
New Saplings
It looks like somebody has also planted a little copse of trees here.
Row Upon Row
Beyond that, you can see lots of simple graves. This is the norm in the TC graves I have seen. In general they aren't as ornate as the ones you often find in Greek Cypriot cemeteries.

They are certainly more visible than on my first visit.

Chrysochou
Chrysochou lies nestled between Goudi and Polis, on the North West Coast of Cyprus. From the B7, where you will most likely have seen it, it is notable for the well preserved mosque that dominates its skyline. But Chrysochou has other points of interest, and a few surprises should your curiosity entice you to explore, including a fully restored water mill!
Chrysochou Cemetery
If you drive along the B7 towards Polis, pay attention as you pass by Chrysochou. On your right, through the trees, you will be able to make out some strange stone shapes. One day recently, while we were preparing for our recent Chrysochou blog, we decided to investigate further...
Chrysochou Gorge
Let's move away from tourist spots and go and explore some random countryside. We found this while trying to avoid a Cyprus Traffic Jam on the way back from Chrysochou Green Point.
Chrysochou Hills
The Paphos Countryside is a hidden gem, and outside the activity radar of many tourists, which is a shame. The other day we paused on the way back to a trip to the local Recycling Centre to take in the scenery, at one of our favourite viewpoints. In between storms, we were able to take some lovely pictures...Related Pages

We first reported on the old Turkish Cypriot cemetery in Chrysochou back in 2018. On recent visits to Polis I had notice in passing that part of the area had been cleared, so I made a return visit to get a closer look.

eBookCyprus Road Trip 01: the Kathikas - Panagia Loop
Let me take you on a journey around the region of Paphos, Cyprus. Starting at Paphos itself, we travel to Akoursos, then Kathikas, Kritou Terra and Simou. We continue past Lasa and Kannaviou, before taking in the delights of Panagia. Getting a bit more adventurous, we visit the abandoned villages of Statos and Agios Fotios, before passing through Choulou, Letymbou and Polemi, and rejoining the main Paphos - Polis road.
The route is suitable for all types of vehicle, and requires no off-roading. The guide contains about 130 photographs including shots of all the road signs you need to pay attention to, as well as some of the highlights you may experience along the way.
There are also several maps which will help you keep your bearings.
You can do this journey in a day, or you can break it up into chunks. You can also do it in reverse, to get some completely different views. It is entirely up to you.
