Cyprus is an archaeologist’s paradise. Layer upon layer of historical architectural ruins lie all over the place, and especially here in the Archaeological Park in Paphos. History has not always been kind to earlier civilisations, with foreign invasions and earthquakes destroying many wonderful buildings and works of art.
Some of the ruins here are as old as 2000 years or more, and some date to medieval times.
Here are several photos of these ruins, which include four roman palaces (with some well preserved mosaic floors), castles and amphitheatres.

Yes indeed, so much history. I would love to be able to take a brief look back in time and walk around those Roman Palaces in their full splendour.
