Paphos

• Archaeological Park at the harbor (House of Dionysus and mosaics)
• Castle at the harbor in Paphos (13th-century Byzantine fortress)
• Tombs of the Kings
• Pillar of St. Paul
• Upper Paphos (Pano Paphos) is the old part of Paphos with bars, restaurants, and narrow streets. Also, visit Paphos Market, open Monday to Saturday from 9:00 to 13:00.
• I recommend affordable Greek food at Livadia restaurants – try souvlaki or tavern Mixalos for the best sheftalia (traditional pork patties) in Paphos.
