Separated from the lower part of the city and the main tourist area, the historic old district offers a more relaxed atmosphere and several cultural attractions. Even though the area is only 2 miles (3 kilometers) away From the main promenade of the tourist area, the city center of Paphos, or Ktim, as it is called by locals, seems to be in another world. Stroll through the charming and measured neighborhood to see the elegant colonial-era buildings and the modern business center of the city. Ktima is an ideal place for those who want to escape from the lively and more touristy part of Kato Paphos (Lower Paphos).
Stroll through the bars and traditional restaurants in the city center. Take a break for a cup of coffee in a cafe overlooking the harbor. While you're here, take a look at the municipal market — "agora", as the locals call it — where the residents of Paphos buy groceries. Due to its many narrow streets and compact size, the center of Paphos is best explored on foot. If you don't want to go uphill, take the local bus from the harbor.
Completion of construction is December 2025.
