We heard that there were celebrations for Greek Independence Day in Old Paphos, so on a very hot day we climbed up the hill.

The view was well worthwhile
The procession was long with representatives from local schools, colleges and groups.

Walking back down we discovered the Church of Agia Sofia (now the Cami-i Kebir Mosque)...

It didn't look to be in use these days...
