The Polemi Tulip Festival Is Coming!
This sunday, the 2nd April, sees the annual tulip festival return to Polemi. Yesterday we took a peek at the fields to see what is in store...
Getting There
The event begins at the Metochi Cultural Centre at 11AM. If you turn off the B7 at the Polemi turning by the Garage, you will find plenty of signs.
The event at the cultural centre will include free wine, traditional Cyprus sweets and a dancing and singing programme. Visitors will then be able to go for a walk on the fields filled with blossoming tulips.
The Tulip Field
We first visited here about a week ago, but couldn't see much. However, in the last week, the tulips have began to flower.
Lots Of Tulips
By Sunday there will be a lot more in flower, but already in places there was an abundance of red and pink.
Gatecrashers
And it isn't just tulips! Other flowers are also trying to get in on the act.
Tulips Closeup
There are numerous places in Polemi where you can have a sunday feast once you have viewed the tulips, though it is likely to be busy so booking ahead is advisable.

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.
