Foinikas the Abandoned Village - Paphos - Cyprus
The abandoned village of Foinikas (Phoenix), Paphos is located along the Asprokremmos dam 3 km away from Anarita.
Richard I the Lionheart who captured Cyprus in 1191 AD after defeating the Byzantines sold the island to the Knights Templar.
The Knights, who had their headquarters in Nicosia in order to control the plains of Mesaoria, used the village as a base for their operations in Paphos and Limassol.
During the French Lusignan period (1192-1489) the village was known as ‘Commandaria Della Finicha’.
Until 1974, the village was inhabited by Turkish Cypriots who fled after the invasion, leaving it abandoned.
Nearly half Foinika’s ruins are under water following the construction of Asprokremmos dam.

Absolutely Stunning drone footage!!! Well done, and thanks so much for sharing this!! :) I remember filming there last year with a drone. It's such an interesting and historic place to visit, with a sense of sadness....I wanted to share with you my take on this abandoned village. ua-cam.com/video/TWBt9iyz4fM/v-deo.html
Where is that old sign at the start? Is that Napier road or Rangitikei line entrance to Palmy?
Please update on Job opportunities for students and dependant as well
There use to be a cross on the clock?!??
Yeah it was on there right up until they added the extra bit on the top around the early 2000s I think.
a favourite place to ride, thanks for making a beautiful video of this special place
Yay.. Palm springs NZ.
❤❤❤❤
Hey, that's my office!
Do you have a 102?
What a FN joke petrol prices are in NZ. Daylight robbery
Windy Welly 😅
Thanks so much for this!
Warum wurden die Heckrotoren wechselseitig verbaut🤔
Vot a vonderful place to go for a valk! 😃
Legends who watched the entire video: 🗿
that car going through the intersection of Rangitikei and Featherston streets at 27 secs is absolutely almost hauntingly awesome. That real actual moment in time and the driver never to know he/she is going to seen many decades later going through the intersection by at this point a minimum of 1200 people 59 years into the future.
quite special, there are not enough of these old films. I was 6 years old going to Milson school when this was filmed, my Nana lived in one of those houses pictured from on top of the bridge. Now I am 64 watching a scene that I would have been in many times a lifetime ago, thanks for posting this!
Lovely

WoW so Nice ❤
what a boring video---- a woman walking the deck----. P& O is the lowest class of ship---- Perhaps your brain doesn't see this
When I first arrived in this beautiful country and drove through this road I was and still am amazed by the sheer beauty it offered to the travellers. There were designated spots where you could safely park your car take photos and admire the scenery for a while. Sadly it is now slowly dying but it will never be forgotten because to me it is a truly another beautiful historic wonder of the world.
There I was all the while wondering both at the range of the drone but most of all about where exactly YOU were, something that was not to be revealed until the very end 😀
Ti kaneis re. 🙂
Wellcome to New Zealand 🇳🇿 people☺️
First
Cool video
Moving to Palmy in November from overseas. Can't wait❤
Been there.Nice place gave it a good review but did mention one of the staff members who talked to me like i was a homosexual asking if i was sharing a room with a bloke,said it as if it wasnt an insult..But would actually consider booking in there again,as you can see its got taste,a nice quintessential :London suburban small hotel.
Cool 🚂
Fantastic footage 👍I left Paraparaumu in 1980 , never seen Transition Gully ,wow what a huge undertaking 👍
Those are some Spectacular views. Especially seeing the beautiful Sea in the distance coming over the Hill. Thanks for taking me on a Cruise!
What a beautiful vintage film. I love it!
a shame you did not film Broadway or Main Street. Would not have seen people looking at their phones 😄
