A very typical Cyprus door, note the high, round handles, operating an inner latch… you see these in mountain villages on the old houses…often a door to a courtyard entrance rather than a house, hence the solid wood structure.
Offset by pink bougainvillea, a traditional pot and some rather lovely stonework, I wouldn’t mind a set of these at my house!
Traditional doors….
Linking with Thursday Doors , pop over and see doors for this week….
Travels in the Middle East and beyond

Yes Norm, the stonework is renovated really well. My house in Cyprus is an old village house but whilst renovating I didn’t have the option to turn it back to this beautiful work… mine was cemented with a mix of sea sand and mud, horse -hair and whatever else was available( some interesting stuff appeared during renovation)… so the walls were collapsing in … a labour of love to restore, but I can never get rid of the annual invasion of flying ants that nest in my walls, the rising damp and so on… but I wouldn’t change it , ever, it’s my home…!
