Kallepia,

Paphos Villages

 To the northeast of Pafos, some 13 km away, is Kallepia, built at 500m above sea level. The village of Kallepia is so well known for its beauty, that its name actually derives from the Greek word of the same meaning.

 Today Kallepia preserves many of its old, authentic features such as the stone built houses with the large courtyards, the great number of pitchers, clay pots and earthenware jars, the stone built wine-press, the abundance of marble rocks (of the area) most impressively seen on the Monastery of the Holy Cross which is built entirely out of marble. Of great importance is also the old church of Ayios Georgios.

 The surrounding area is overgrown with rich vegetation, plantations and vineyards and lends itself to beautiful walks.

 The local art gallery is reputed in the whole area and has regular exhibitions from local and foreign artists.
