Restaurant Recommendations

Petros - Petros the owner also cooks and waits. Very pleasant service which opens from breakfast till late into the night. A few tables situated outside on the small balcony. Menu is typical Cypriot but you can also pop in there during the day to make a special request or ask Mrs.Petros to make a vegetarian dish. Very reasonably priced and good village wine.

Railway Tavern - Good British pub food.

Paphos

The booming main town and year-round resort in the west consists of Upper Paphos, built on a rocky escarpment that commands a superb view of the coastline, and Lower Paphos, with a taverna-fringed harbour and a long seafront lined with hotels.

Paphos is rich in ancient sites, in particular a cluster of excavated Roman villas near the harbour, among them the House of Dionysos and the Villa of Theseus, that contain superb mosaic floors, and the Tombs of the Kings.

Other attractions include the Paphos District Museum, the Byzantine Museum, Paphos Fort commanding the harbour, the remains of the Byzantine castle of Saranda Kolones, and Panagia Chrysopolitissa Church, the largest early Christian basilica on the island. Paphos Aquarium is of more recent origin.
