Aphrodite
emerged from the gentle waves near Pafos,
on the island’s western coast, and made
her home in this region. Pafos itself is
a leading cultural centre of the Mediterranean,
with fascinating mosaics to see at the Houses
of Aion and Dionysos, St. Paul’s Pillar,
the Tombs of the Kings and more. The whole
town is on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
In the nearby Akamas Peninsula and inland
region there are beautiful monasteries,
such as Agios Neofytos and Chrysorrogiatissa,
picturesque villages and nature trails.
Further north near the Akamas peninsula
and the Baths of Aphrodite lies the resort-town
of Polis, overlooking the beautiful Chrysochou
Bay with its charming fishing refuge of
Latsi. The relatively unspoilt state of
the countryside and villages make the area
a real delight for the walker and naturalist.
East of Polis you come accross such villages
as Pomos and Pyrgos that lie on beautiful
rocky cliffs and rocky beaches. |
