The
whole town of Pafos is included in official UNESCO list of
cultural and natural treasures of the world heritage.
Wherever one treads in Pafos, comes across its glorious
history, which dates back thousands of years, when cult of
goddess Aphrodite, who emerged from its seas, flourished
in this beautiful part of the world, attracting many
visitors from inland and abroad.
Today, it is a growing harbor town, but in Hellenistic and
Roman times it was the capital of Cyprus. Still under the
spell of her Beauty-goddess, area retaining her magic has
remained intact by time. It seduces its visitor with its
majestic landscape, lovely coastline, historical treasures
and delightful villages, where tradition is still a way of
life.
Kept in harmony with nature are divine mediaeval
monasteries, which lie peacefully in Pafos heartland.
