Looks like we are going to Paphos this summer!

Paphos ha long been a favoured tourist destination amongst travellers. The reason is quite simple! The city has it all from wonderful beaches to magnificent cultural attractions and landmarks. Let’s take a look at a few you have to add to your sightseeing bucket list!

Petra Tou Romiou lies between Paphos and Pissouri Village, which based on Greek mythology is the birthplace of goddess Aphrodite! The Greek goddess first emerged from the foam of the waves at this beach and is one of the most scenic bays on the island, is a place of inspiration and natural beauty.

Treat yourself to a day trip to Akamas Peninsula, situated on the north-western tip of the island! The unspoilt coastline from Paphos to Akamas boasts with beautiful landscapes, amazing rock formations, secluded sandy beaches and spectacular cliffs overlooking the Mediterranean Sea! The area is an excellent hiking spot and great place to spot wildlife and nature!

The timeless Mosaics of Paphos are thought to be some of the most beautiful and impressive remnants inspired from Greek Mythology. The well-preserved mosaics depict scenes taken from Greek Mythology and are believed to date to around 200 – 500 AD. The most impressive are found in Greco-Roman palaces such as the Houses of Orpheus, Dionysos, Theseus and Aion. Even though the mosaics had been buried for over 1500 years, they somehow remained preserved.

The Odeion was and still is the heart and soul of Paphos. Located in the heart of the ancient city-kingdom of Paphos, this Roman amphitheatre was built in the 2nd century and used for theatrical and musical performances. The open-air timeless structure was built out of hewn limestone blocks. Considered as an architectural masterpiece, life still breathes within its grounds as musical and theatrical performances are held during the summer months, inviting all of you to experience a magical night under the stars!
