Cyprus - Archaeological Sites, Churches and General Scenery.
Tour round Cyprus whilst on Holiday and find beautiful castles, churches, picturesque towns and villages, lovely countryside and scenery - and some excellent archaeological sites to visit.
Some of Cyprus's small churches are particularly beautiful - and what a place for the lovely little Pafos church (see just below for a photo of it) to be located - right in the middle of the rowdy bars in Pafos Harbour. Then there is the beautifully shaped five domed church at Paraskevi - unusual and really nice. The two Venetian Bridges are rather special as well - you have to make a little effort to find them (they are a little south of Trooditissa and on really twisty narrow roads) but such an effort is worth it - and anyway both bridges are located in a nice spot for a picnic.

Cyprus Archaeological - Visiting and Touring some of Cyprus's Ancient Sites whilst on holiday on Cyprus.
Photos from Archaeological Sites around the Episkopi area in Cyprus.
Below are some photos taken in the Pafos and Episkopi area of Cyprus from several of their large archaeological
sites which we enjoyed walking around whilst on holiday on Cyprus. Entry to them is really inexpensive - around 70 cents to
150 cents and you do get a lot for your money. One thing to think of - take a bottle of water with you when walking around
particularly some of these sites - the Paphos archaeological site is huge and quite exposed as is the Kourion (which is located just outside
Episkopi) since it gets pretty warm on these extensive sites and there is very little shade available.
These are photos taken of the Kolossi and it's immediate surrounds - located near Episkopi.
Kourion - located near Episkopi.
The six photos below were taken at the Sanctuary of Apollo in Cyprus - this is part of the Kourion but is a separate site and located a little way out on the Episkopi to Pafos road.
Photos from Archaelogical Sites around the Paphos (Pafos) area in Cyprus
(above photos) Saranda Kolones - this ruined castle is located within the Paphos Archaeological Site
Mosaics which can be seen at the Pafos Site.
The pictures shown immediately above and below were all taken at the
extensive Pafos Archaeological Site, Paphos Cyprus
These next 18 photos were taken at Cyprus's Tomb of the Kings - this extensive burial site is located on the edge of Pafos Town just off the
Paphos to Coral Bay coast road.
