Petra tou Romiou (Legendary birthplace of Aphrodite) The Petra Tou Romiou (Rock of the Greek), or Aphrodite's Rock (as it is known in English), is a scenic place, located off the old Pafos-Lemesos road in Cyprus. It's a popular tourist spot, for its breathtaking view of the sea, and more famously the birth place of Aphrodite. Legend has it that this is the Rock from which Aphrodite mythically arose from the foaming sea.
Agios Neophytos Monastery & Egglistra Saint Neophytos monastery lies 10 km outside Paphos, near Tala village. Saint Neophytos was the founder of the monastery in 1159. He lived there and died in 1219 at the age of 85. The main church of the monastery was built around 200 years after his death and is devoted to Virgin Mary. Interesting places for the visitor are the cave with the cell of St Neophytos (Engleistra). In his cell are still preserved his rock-table and the rock platform on which he slept, as well as his grave. A famous painter, Theodoros Apsevdis, undertook frescoes in the Engleistra. At the monastery one can also see Byzantine icons in the main church of exceptional art and also visit the museum of the monastery.
Archaeological Park of Pafos Kato Pafos archaeological Park includes sites and monuments from prehistoric times to the Middle Ages, while most remains date to the Roman period. The marvellous mosaic floors of four Roman villas from the impressive epicentre of the finds. The complex includes other important monuments, such as the Asklipieion, the Odeion, the Agora, the "Saranta Kolones" (Forty Columns) Fortress, the "Limeniotissa" Ruins of early Christian Basilica and the "Tombs of the Kings". The inclusion of the Kato Pafos archaeological site in the UNESCO World Heritage Sites list in 1980 was the starting point for the creation of a General Plan whose aim would be primarily to protect and maintain the archaeological remains, as well as to promote them and provide comprehensive information to visitors.
