9 Historic Sites in Paphos That You Shouldn't Miss
Paphos, the capital of western Cyprus, has some serious historical clout. Site of the vast fourth-century BC Tombs of the Kings, set high on a cliff above the sparkling sea, as well as a dramatic Byzantine castle and fine mosaics, it's also known as the birthplace of the goddess Aphrodite. The population of 27,000 is swelled by a summer influx of beach-bound English, German and Scandinavian visitors. A beautiful old harbor awaits, while modern hotels and restaurants stretch along the promenade.

This site is right next to the harbour and has a very cheap entry price. The mosaics are everywhere and some you can even walk on as they are mainly outside. Incredible workmanship.

Two watermills across from Skarfos bridge; the first is difficult to find as it is overgrown and can be found walking through a field; the main watermill is signposted and you can walk across the top and get a wonderful view. You can walk across the Skarfos bridge, across the field to also get to the watermill.
