This is a private Ethnographic Museum and is said to be the richest museum in all of Cyprus and this Museum in Paphos belongs to Mr. George Eliades.
Mr. Eliades has a deep interest in history, archaeology, folk art, and literature, and has been collecting his treasure for over half a century. Mr. Eliades has incorporated components of the physical and man made environment into his museum and these include natural caves, architecture dating back to 1894, a Hellenistic rock cut tomb, a kiosk, and a terebinth tree.
This private collection of items housed in the Ethnographical Museum in Paphos is dedicated to life on the island of Cyprus from Neolithic time’s right through to the present day. There is a comprehensive rural life section which features antiques, trays, basketry, irons, and sieves.

Pissouri Rhythm And Blues Festival
Amphitheatre, Pissouri Village
The little village of Pissouri loves the blues every year on one hot summer night. Staged in the village's outdoor amphitheatre, with a spectacular view, this small but extremely dedicated festival is ideal for blues lovers.
Legend has it that the festival was conceived in 2007 by three friends in a local bar. They were musing over the fact that Cyprus really needed a good blues festival and the Pissouri R&B Festival was born.
Confirmed bands for the 2008 line up are The Mike Panos Blues Band and Cold Shot.
Refreshments including beer, soft drinks and food are available, but you are welcome to bring your own if you wish.

Fresh & Sea water fish
Fish are magnificently diverse in size, shape, color, and pattern. Cold-blooded, they live in both fresh and salt water, from cold regions to the tropics. Almost all have fins, gills, and scales. About 96 percent are bony fish. The rest are cartilaginous fish: sharks, skates, and rays.
Rosella Parrots
A rosella is one of 5-8 species of colorful Australian parrots in the genus Platycercus. Platycercus means "broad-" or "flat-tailed", reflecting a feature common to the rosellas and other members of the broad-tailed parrot tribe.
Rosellas are native to Australia and some nearby islands, where they inhabit forests, woodlands, farmlands, and suburban parks and gardens. They are confined to the coastal mountains and plains and are absent from the outback. Introduced populations have also established themselves in New Zealand and Norfolk Island.
Tortoise
Turtles are reptilians of the Order Testudines (all living turtles belong to the crown group Chelonia), most of whose body is shielded by a special bony or cartilaginous shell developed from their ribs. The Order Testudines includes both extant (living) and extinct species. The earliest known turtles date from 215 million years ago,[1] making turtles one of the oldest reptile groups and a more ancient group than lizards and snakes. About 300 species are alive today, and some are highly endangered.
Macaw Parrots
It can reach 76-86 cm (29.9-33.9 inches) long and weigh 900 to 1300 g (2-3 lbs), making them one of the biggest parrots in the world. They are vivid in appearance with blue wings and tail, black chin, golden underparts and a green forehead. Their beaks are jet black and very strong for crushing nuts. The naked face is white, turning pink in excited birds, and lined with small black feathers.
