Kato Arodes
Published 21st of May, 2019
Overgrown Swing
That reminds me of the swing we had in our back garden when I was a kid. Incidentally, does anybody know where you can buy a swing like this in Paphos? I can order the big wooden ones that they use in the playgrounds, but they cost about €1000.
Summer Life
Here's a good example of a house that is shuttered but obviously still in use. That was a fresh-looking padlock in place on the entrance.
Go Exploring
If you go for a wander around Kato Arodes, you will find lots of charming little streets like this. You can get a nice view of the Akamas if you follow it.
Distant Agios Georgios
See what I mean? Even with all the cloud, you can see the rear of the Avakas Gorge on the right of the picture. And Yeronnisos Island is dead centre.
Possibly Derelict
I think this one must have been abandoned for a while though, despite the padlock. That vine seems to be taking over, and an annual pruning would have prevented that.

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.
