[2025 Stroumbi Attraction] Travel Guide for Paphos Archaeological Park (Updated Jan)

The Archaeological Park of Kato Pafos (Paphos) is one of the most important archaeological sites in Cyprus. Since 1980, it has been included in the list of UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It is important to note that Paphos was the capital city of Cyprus between 2nd Century BC and 4th Century AD. The park is extremely huge and the entrance fee (€4.50) is truly worth the money and time! My favourite site is the Villa House of Aion with its marvellous and most detailed mosaics on display, dating from 4th Century BC to the Middle Ages. There are also other Houses with even more mosaics for you to admire. Remember to enjoy the site at your own pace using a self-guided tour. #celebratewithtrip #cyprus #paphos

#bucketlistreboot During your visit you will be able to see some of the more memorable houses and villas. These include: House of Dionysus – this is a preserved ruins of a Roman villa dating to the 2nd, century known for colourful mosaics of Dionysus. It’s not clear whether only romans lived there and is believed wealthy native Greeks also could have inhabited the house. The mosaic floor from the House of Aion is considered one of the most exceptional works of ancient Roman art, if not the only work of its kind. House of Theseus – this exceptionally large villa was the residence of the Roman proconsul or governor, and was divided between rooms for official functions and those for private use. #paphos

#summerdestinations My visit to the Archaeological Site of Nea Paphos in Cyprus was an incredible journey through history! 🏛️ Located in the heart of Paphos, this ancient site is packed with well-preserved ruins and mosaics from the Hellenistic and Roman periods. The entrance fee was around €4.50, which is great for the wealth of historical treasures you get to see. The highlight for me was the intricate floor mosaics in the House of Dionysus, showcasing detailed mythological scenes that have survived centuries. The site also includes the Odeon amphitheater, which offers a glimpse into ancient entertainment. 🎭 Nearby, we strolled through the picturesque Paphos Harbor and enjoyed a meal at a local taverna with stunning sea views. 🌊🍴 Nea Paphos is a must-visit for anyone interested in ancient history and archaeology. #trip #localguides #NeaPaphos #Paphos #AncientRuins #CyprusHistory
