The Thirteenth Peyia Carob Festival
Published 5th of September, 2025
Nice Bag
Alex took most of the pictures for this article. She is currently looking to buy a new bag, and I think she was doing a bit of field research with some of her photographs!
Let's Go Exploring
As everybody was still waiting for the music and dancing to start, I decided to go for a little wander. That archway leads to the church.
Illuminated Olives
The next four shots are stills taking from my 360 film, so won't have the same quality as Alex's lovely pictures. However, they do show how nice the Church and Museum area now look.
The church was open and you were able to have a look inside. There is a cafe there too, though the restaurant itself is not yet open.
Back To The Festival
I could hear music playing now, so quickly made my way back to the main event. Doesn't it look lovely now here though?

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.
