In Lower Paphos you will find a couple of sights that led you through the various ages of Cyprus' history: roman buildings, a Byzantine palace, Christian churches, a Frankish bath and Turkish castle architecture. Upper Paphos (Ktima) was once the burial grounds for New Paphos. Three small, but very interesting museums are located there (see museums)

About 2 miles northwards of the Old Harbour you will find the Tombs of the Kings. The tombs are impressive enough to be worthy of kings. They are burial caves carved into the bedrock of the hill and decorated with Doric columns and capitals; they date from the 4th century BC. You can freely walk about the place once inside, searching through the rooms of the tombs, with parts underground carved into the rock. The men who than unrevealed these tombs took their body parts and threw them in a near by river.
