Paphos Ruins1

Here a few more pictures from Paphos. These are from this massive archealogical site which once contained an impressive complex of temples and palace-like buildings. The ruins are all that is left today unfortunately...this site was just absolutely incredible and I wish I could have seen the complex when it was in its glory! The mosaics were also impressive and really showed the skill it took to create the intracate scenes the artists portrayed. As always, it is taking a long time to load pics, so I will add more tomorrow.

  1. Amazing place! The mosiacs are so beautiful.
    Any idea how old these ruins are. The detail that is still visible is incredible.
