Paphos Old Town Walk
Published 22nd of February, 2023
I had half an hour free the other day, so I took a quick stroll around Old Town. Isn't it looking lovely these days?
Kennedy Square
I started my walk from the car park opposite Kennedy Square. I have crossed the road now and am about to enter the heart of Old Town. In a few days, this whole area will be packed with people celebrating the Carnival. Now though, it is fairly sedate.
Photogenic Flower Pots
Some of the buildings in Old Town now look fantastic. I have seen pictures of this tavern popping up all over the place.
Mural Retirement Home
One of the reasons the Old Town is so popular is the murals that adorn some of its walls. Most of them were created during three Street Art Festivals that ran a few years ago. Not all of them remain, but those that do have become a part of the furniture, quite literally in this case!
Old Scooter
I bet this could tell a few tales.
Noynoy
This is one of my favourite murals, because it is so silly.

Old Town Cementography
You could be forgiven for not knowing anything about Cementography. It is a modern, Cypriot art form, that was celebrated in the dying days of Paphos 2017 by the placement of eight murals in and around Paphos Old Town. You may well have seen some of them on your travels, and some have featured in previous blogs. However, the murals actually depict different stages in a Cypriot fairy tale, so we thought it about time we presented the murals in order, with the accompanying story attached...Related Pages

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.
