Paphos
4 things to see
Paphos is packed with UNESCO-listed archaeological sites and the mythical birthplace of Aphrodite, with coastal walks and ancient mosaics that offer exceptional value for history-loving travelers. The harbour and seafront promenade cost nothing to wander, and the headland around the medieval fort makes for a free sunset walk. From here the rest of the south coast is easy: Limassol and Larnaca are short, cheap bus rides away, and the capital Nicosia sits inland. Spring and autumn bring warm weather without the peak summer crowds and prices.
