Guide to Paphos

map
Also known as Pafos, Paphos lies to the southwestern coastline of Cyprus, looking out over the Mediterranean Sea from its large port, and shadowed by the Troodos Mountains. It has a population of around 66,000 people living in its urban areas, and is well known as the birthplace of Greek goddess Aphrodite, as well as being listed as a UNESCO cultural site of interest. Don't miss the Archaeological Park, which houses the ruins of Roman villas, or the Tombs of the Kings, a rocky complex of former graves!
