There is some construction or renovation works going on, but you can still easily the mosaics and the theatre. When you arrive, you can temporarily park your car to buy your tickets and then you should continue driving until you reach the parking lot. There are some temporary toilets at the lot, and there’s a vending machine when you go down from there, near the theatre, if you need water or something else. The mosaics are shaded and there are explanations in English. The theatre, is interesting but nothing major. You’ll spend maybe 20-30 minutes here. The entrance fee is 4,5 euros per person, free parking. A must visit, given the unique opportunity to see the stone that represented Aphrodite in the antiquity and the one-of-a-kind sarcophagus perfectly preserved. The excellent explanation and story telling by the guard is another highlight. Large collection of ancient artifacts from different periods. €4.50 to get in. Large of pre Roman and Roman building a great of artifacts. Signs dotted around site,could do with picture of what they think whole looked like. A holy site. The Sanctuary of the Goddess Aphrodite herself. This is the home of the black conal rock of the temple itself is kept. There are some wonderful exhibits here. From a mosaic here and a broken piece of building there. It's mysterious and a wonderful place to explore. Everything you see is just one piece of the puzzle. A wonderful place of imagination. However there are some issues that need to be addressed: Some of the displays have faded because of constant exposure to the sun and the heat, these need to be renewed. Some exhibits have been scattered carelessly! There is even a piece of an ancient column with ancient Cypriot syllabic text engraved on it that has been left outside the TV room making it vulnerable to damage. It needs to be kept indoors and studied, not left outside abandoned like this. There is no label on it or any translation of what it says. Overall, an essential for anyone who loves and mythology. I recommend. Had a lovely time here... lot of to look at and a TV room too with air conditioning... lovely Well underrated UNESCO listed place with many artefacts and stunning views surrounding this site. The ancient remains date back to 12th century BC! This place is also known as The Sanctuary of Aphrodite and it also was one of the most important city-kingdoms of Cyprus. Spent about 40 mins here with my son who loves exploring ruins. The is quite big with about 10 -15 different bits to explore. The small has more artifacts & the staff are very helpful in explaining them all. There is a 10 min TV show explaining the which is worth a watch. €4.50 entry, free for smaller children and over 65s. Lovely views too. Beautiful and medieval manner house, from across the centuries! It is a pleasure to share that this captivating location, rich with ancient columns, mosaics, and impressive modern amenities, offers a truly remarkable experience. It is an excellent destination for both solo travelers and families, promising to captivate all who visit. Having personally enjoyed this since childhood, it has only grown more enchanting over the years. The ongoing discoveries with each further enhance its allure. The location is indeed wonderful! Amazing historic ruins. A lot of to digest. Historical boards at each ruin location. Admission also gets you into the museum. Such a bargain. Definitely recommend to anyone already visiting Aphrodite's birthplace (rock) since it's nearby. If you like physical and the of Cyprus this is worth a visit. In a small village with more cafes than you may expect. Just don't follow Google maps for parking. Park opposite the church as you enter the area A big archeological site, with numerous things to see and historically significant finds for the islands past. Could be a bit more informative as to what the actually are. The ticket includes the Palaipaphos as well. Would recommend a visit! NOTE: I suppose it would be best to go to the first and then go out to the archeological area. Helps connect the puzzle.
