CYPRUS BUSHCRAFT ADVENTURES, LEARNING THROUGH SPORTS!
Paphos, a coastal city found in the southwest of Cyprus, is full of history and nice vibes. The city was the capital of the country for many years in antiquity. Today it is divided into two parts – Palepaphos (Old Paphos) and the Nea or Kato Paphos (New Paphos). The entire town of Paphos is a listed UNESCO World Heritage Site. Once in Paphos, you should not miss the chance to admire some of the major archeological attractions of the city such as the Tombs of the Kings – dated back to the 3rd century BC – and the stunning Mosaics of Paphos found close to the Medieval Fort of Pafos. Nevertheless, Paphos also has a dynamic nightlife, especially in the summertime. The visitor can choose between all kinds of bars and restaurants that offer, in their majority, an amazing view.
