For nature lovers, the Stavros tis Psokas, is the best place to see Cyprus’ largest endemic mammal, the endangered mouflon, also known as Agrino or Cyprus Mountain Goat, which is a wild sheep that originates from Corsica and Sardinia. Currently, there are only 3000 mouflons in Cyprus and are usually seen on cliffs which they enjoy climbing.  What is particularly interesting with regard to this species is its horns that have the shape of sickles and are approximately 60 cm long.

On the edge of the Akamas Peninsula, there’s a lovely small grotto, the Baths of Aphrodite, which is of great mythological significance, as, according to Greek mythology, it’s the place where the goddess Aphrodite met her lover Adonis. Unfortunately, swimming is not allowed but the waters are supposed to have great rejuvenating effects.  Nonetheless, you can relax in the tranquil atmosphere and pristine surroundings of this pretty cave. If you are looking for a more adventurous hike, then, the impressive Avakas Gorge should be included in your bucket list.  Although the hike is not very long, just 2.5 km, it is truly memorable due to the stunning natural rock formation of the gorge, created by a stream running through limestone.

Located in the village of Kouklia, just 16km from Paphos, this ancient town is an archaeologist’s dream. If you have an interest in history, you’ll find this vast site incredibly intriguing. The site has links to the Great Goddess cult, an ancient and mysterious cult worshiping the goddess of fertility, dating back to the Neolithic Period.

There is so much to see and explore at Palepaphos, some of the highlights include…

– The Sanctuary of Aphrodite

One of the most important sites linked to the goddess Aphrodite, this sanctuary has been referenced throughout ancient literature. The site consists of two sanctuaries, one dating back to the Bronze Age, the other to around the 1st or 2nd century A.D.

– The Northeast Gate

An imposing structure in the main city wall, the gate dates to the 8th century B.C. and played a part in the Persian siege of the city in 498 B.C.

– The city wall and the Palace of Hadji Abdulla

Take a ten-minute stroll from the Northeast Gate and you will discover the remains of the city wall, and a palace from the 6th century B.C., thought to be the home of Palepaphos, the governor of Persia.

– The House of Leda

A visit to the site of the House of Leda is a must, the central dining room has a well-preserved 2nd century A.D. mosaic floor depicting some stunning scenes from mythology of Leda and the Swan.

– The Church of Panagia Katholiki

This well-preserved church is certainly worth taking a closer look at, as inside, the walls are decorated with traditional 15th century artwork.

– The sugar-cane refinery

Processing sugar cane was an important industry in Palepaphos. The sugar mill and refineries in the coastal plain of Kouklia are well preserved and certainly worth seeing.

– The Lusignian Manor House

Built in the 13th century, then added to over the centuries, this administrative centre includes a Gothic Hall that many say is one of the most impressive examples of Frankish profane architecture on the island. This building also houses an interesting museum of archaeology.

– Cemeteries

There are several cemeteries within the area, which have yielded many finds of great archaeological interest. Visit the museum in the Lusignian Manor House to view these treasures from the tombs.
