Dating back to the Neolithic period, Paphos is internationally recognised for its rich cultural heritage. Combine with fantastic beaches and a buzzing tourist scene for a super desirable Mediterranean holiday destination.
A UNESCO World Heritage town, Paphos, on the west coast, was once the capital of Cyprus.
Today, a luxury Paphos holiday offers superb swimming opportunities as well as remarkable archaeological sites and historical treasures, including Roman mosaics, the remains of a pillar to which St. Paul was allegedly tied, and the Tombs of the Kings, a necropolis dating back to 300 BC.
Paphos is surrounded by friendly mountain villages where age-old customs and traditions are upheld. Further, into the heartland, the famous monasteries of Ayios Neophytos and Chryso royiatissa attract modern-day pilgrims.
