Millo's Tower
Another Angle
I love Millo's style. This is a good summary of it:
Millo is an Italian street artist, born Francesco Camillo Giorgino in 1979. He is known for his predominantly black and white large-scale murals. His artworks are characterized by child-like figures, simple monochromatic lines combined with a dash of color, and elements of architecture.
Suitable Surroundings
The tower itself can be found in Andreas Sylianides Park in Geroskipou. This is one of - I believe - four green areas in the town that are being constructed. If the others are anything like this then full marks to the council! As well as the picnic benches you can see here, there are swings, a seesaw and even a small zip line. There is also an enclosed pitch, for ball games.
Surf's Up!
However, as it is a child's playground, and I visited in the middle of the day, there were quite a few children about. Wandering around a children's playground with a camera isn't the best look in the world, so I took a few snaps of the tower itself before going on my way.
Spring Flowers
Like the rest of Cyprus, the park is currently in bloom. There were lots of poppies growing beneath this wooden construction.

As part of Pafo2017, a new Sculpture Park was commissioned in Geroskipou. Inspired by local history, legends and traditions, ten Cypriot and foreign sculptors have created on-site works drawing on the history of the area and, in this way, leaving behind them the traces of the European Capital of Culture. That's what the blurb says anyway. So what are they like?

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.
