Fascinating place, excellent value of money. It is possible to miss the amphitheater, as its not well signposted.

Large site of ancient mosaics which have been uncovered and preserved dating back to Roman times. You can wander around and imagine how it was 2000 plus years ago. Excellent value and lots of information

The under-cover mosaics are wonderful and well presented. It was also great to see further mosaics outside amongst the excavations. The site looks out to sea and has lovely views - pity there was no where to sit a while in the shade.

worth a visit to see the Roman mosaics that are classed as a UNESCO world heritage site. The most spectacular I have seen.

Worth a visit if you are in the harbour area. Some of the mosaics are awesome. Probably best to buy a combined ticket if you intend to visit the castle and tombs of the Kings.

Not been to Paphos for around 10 years or so and amazed at how this site has been developed. Huge area to explore with ruins, mosaics and lots of interesting bits to see. Takes good couple of hours to get around if you see everything or as others have said you can just home in on the mosaics. Well worth... More

For a very reasonable charge of 3euros 40cents you get entry to this place and its amazing to see how well the mosaics in the roman villas have survived and also how intricate they were in the first place. The site is huge and you really need... More

There is an interesting little film showing in the visitor center explaining the mosaics which is... More
