Highlights of Paphos

Paphos is full of impressive monuments and attractions that reflect a fascinating culture dating back thousands of years, giving the city the title of “UNESCO Monument”.

• Two neighbourhoods compose the scenic city of Paphos. The peaceful and medieval looking Paphos Estate, stretched out on a steep hill overlooking the seaside Kato Paphos, where the tourist and cultural heart of the city beats. Here, around the harbour and seaside boulevard with its palm trees and modern hotels, an open-air museum city is waiting to enchant its visitors. After marvelling the magnificent 13th century medieval castle on one end of the harbour, all roads lead to Paphos Archaeological Park. The priceless collection of archaeological treasures, dating back to the 2nd century BC, is simply fascinating. Travel back to the ages of the past through the House of Dionysos and Theseus with the dazzling mosaics of Roman palaces, the Hellenistic theatre, the impressive Roman Odeon (2nd century) made of perfectly carved stone, the temple of Asclepion and the Byzantine castle "Forty Columns" ( 13th century) of Lusignans.
• The Tombs of the Kings (300 BC) hold a special place in the rich cultural heritage of Paphos. This complex carved in the rocks, with its beautiful frescoes, hides over 100 resting places of last members of Paphos aristocrats.
• In the same area you will see some of the finest early Christian monuments in the Mediterranean, with the Column of St. Paul and the catacombs of St. Solomoni being their benchmark.

Trip ideas around Paphos

The province of Paphos is a paradise for keen eco-tourists and nature lovers.

Exploring the Akamas Peninsula is a must for anyone visiting Paphos. A place of natural wonders and one of the untouched natural regions of the Mediterranean, hiding countless off the road beauties. Stop at the wild gorge of Avacas, wander the untrodden paths of dense forests with rare flora and fauna, live the myth of Aphrodite emerging at the legendary Aphrodite's Rock and the Baths of Aphrodite. Dive into the underwater caves and meet the Caretta-Caretta sea turtles. The best way to enjoy this region is to take part in one of the many organised jeep safaris.

The best time to experience the magic of Paphos is during springtime and autumn. In September the city hosts one of the most famous Mediterranean opera festivals, amid the majestic scenery of the castle.
