This UNESCO World Heritage Site in Paphos features underground tombs and chambers dating back to the 4th century BC. It's a place where high-ranking officials were thought to have been buried. Despite the name, the tombs were not actually used by kings - they got their title from their grand appearance.

The Tombs of the Kings is a significant ancient burial ground located just north of Paphos harbour in Cyprus. Dating back to the Hellenistic and Roman periods (3rd century BC to 3rd century AD), these impressive rock-cut tombs were used for burying Paphitic aristocrats and high officials, not actual royalty, despite the name. It's a key archaeological site for understanding ancient Paphos's rich history.
The Tombs of the Kings typically open daily, though hours vary seasonally. During the summer months (April to October), they often open earlier and close later. It's always best to check the official Cyprus Antiquities Department website for the most up-to-date schedule before your visit to this important Paphos historical site.
Most visitors find that 1 to 2 hours is sufficient to explore the Tombs of the Kings thoroughly. This allows ample time to wander through the various tomb chambers, appreciate the unique architecture, and read the informative signs. Those with a keen interest in archaeology and ancient Cyprus history might choose to spend a little longer at this remarkable Paphos landmark.
