Discover & learnMeet the Locals: Free Guided Walking Tour of Pafos Old TownEvery Thursday the Pafos Regional Board of Tourism runs a free walking tour of the old town, giving a feel for local life both then and now. The route sets off from the municipal fruit market, passes the Ayia Sofia mosque and the Khan of Ibrahim, and carries on to the Markideio theatre, the old electricity power station and the Attikon cultural centre before reaching Kennedy Square and the legacy of Pafos's year as European Capital of Culture. From there it takes in the Town Hall square, the memorial column to 28 October 1940, the public library and its neoclassical neighbours, Moussalas, Agios Theodoros cathedral and the Ethnographical Museum. The walk finishes at the visitor information office, leaving free time for a spot of shopping.

Make autumn magicalSee Halloween events →Theatre & showsBabies Are Brought by the StorkThanasis Papathanasiou and Michalis Reppas's much-loved Greek social comedy, directed by Marinos Xenophontos.
