Elias Bridge, a Medieval bridge built during the Venetian rule of Cyprus 1489 to 1571

Elias bridge, a medieval bridge built during the Venetian rule of Cyprus between 1489-1571. It is part of an old camel trail used to transport mined materials and connect travellers between Paphos and the nearby villages in the Troodos area. We have previously visited this bridge during September. At that time of year the river has dried up and you are able to walk under the bridge without getting your feet wet. However, during March 2026, Cyprus had a lot of rain especially in the mountains. It was desperately needed to fill the reservoirs, so it was a surprise to see so much water running under the bridge.
