DEPARTURE POINT BY BUS: PAFOS2017 HEADQUARTERS 10:00 (Reservation for Seats needed)
🌳 The Community Involvement Programme of the Pafos2017 Organisation visits Amargeti village, which is located about 30 minutes east of Pafos, for a different kind of tour. Until 1958, Amargeti used to be a village were Greek Cypriots and Turkish Cypriots lived together in harmony. The route follows the traces of history and memory, choosing and highlighting hidden spaces and explores elements that cannot be seen at first glance. The Frankish and the Venetian periods have left their distinct marks on Amargeti. Starting at the main square, we will move on to the Folklore Art Museum, housed at the restored Turkish-Cypriot school, for a tour and on to the Museum of Photography with unpublished historic photographs. Members of the Amargeti Expatriates’ Association will guide us through the traces of the… Nobles and the Knights and in the Yerolakkos area, where the village’s old basins were restored, narrating unknown stories of the past. Our twenty minute walk in nature will end at the impressive Bridge of Routhouni (Nostril), in the “Zimpounieris” area, which was constructed during Frankish rule and connected the Amargeti community with the neighbouring villages.
