Mosaics of the House of Aion

Highlight • Historical Site

The almost 2500 old mosaics on the floor of the reception hall of the house show several mythological scenes. Fantastic.

In addition, there are many beautiful geometric figures.

The Roman Villas of Paphos

Highlight • Historical Site

Paphos is known for its outstandingly artistic Roman mosaics. Particularly worth seeing are the mosaics in the Villa of Aeon and the Villa of Theseus, which, with its almost 10,000 square meters, was probably the palace of the Roman governor. Not to be forgotten are the Villa of Dionysus and the Villa of Orpheus.

Small but very well preserved amphitheater in a fantastic location.

Live events also take place here from time to time.

A good starting point is the free car park directly at the port. From there we went to the promenade of Párfos. This is clearly a mile for naysayers: "No, I'm not hungry", "No, I don't need a beer", "No, I ....". Otherwise there is a lot of "low budget" and a lot of tourist hype, not really appealing.
