国王陵墓

stanksh4food

Paphos，是我们这次旅程下飞机的地点，也是塞浦路斯南部其中一个最热闹的旅游胜地。所以，总喜欢只留在一个地方一整个星期的英国人们，好多都选择 Paphos ，自然地，是最旺。 我们来 Paphos，就不是为阳光与海滩了，为的是看看塞浦路斯的古旧一面，因为，Paphos，其实是古塞浦路斯王国的国都。 首先我们去最远的一个景点，叫做 Tomb of the King，是一个已经列入世界遗产的景点。 在我们的眼前，虽然只是一片烂溶溶的废墟，但那面积，那纵横交错的地道，可想而知，在不知几多年前，没有机器的协助，这会是一个十分巨大的工程。 另，根据介绍，这一个说是国王陵墓的地方，原来从未安葬过任何王室成员，也没有安葬过一具尸体。令考古学家们都觉得，真正的国王陵墓，是在另一个不为人知的地方，也有可能是在罗马帝国入侵时，早被破坏了。在这一个遗迹，行在似乱不乱的石头之上，望望地中海的海景，也是值得。

在各种宣传的狂轰乱炸下,原以为参观王冢是个好主意。我们进门时询问售卖的小册子里是否含景区地图,被告知有。结果却没有。这是个很大的地方,到处都是洞坑,没有导游的话很难自己游览。由于炎热和沙土路,随处走走看看在这里并不太轻松。哦,顺便说一句,这里并不是君王的墓穴,埋在这里的没有君王,只有些上层阶级。

他们有超棒的公共交通,并且把这个优势运用来参观乡村的美景,从这点上这里是值得一游的,但是不要期望你能玩上一个小时以上。这里的标识很差劲,而且几乎所有的王冢看上去都是一样的。

我们来的时候正好是10月份的一个下雨天。我觉得古墓很有意思,而且我发现网站上面介绍的内容太少了。我建议大家穿舒适点的鞋子,因为我看到古墓里有好多脚印,古墓里好多地方比较陡峭,不太好走。网站上购买的门票很划算,每人1.7欧元。

一定要自己带水!这里非常棒,但是为什么没有地图?为什么没有自动导游?这里有非常悠久的历史,所以需要通过某些现代的“辅助手段”来让游客们对历史有更好的理解。为什么门票只要13元?如果每个人的门票收40元的话(这通常是老人和小孩的优惠门票),他们就有更多的资金来增添一些旅游的基础设施了。

记得有很多古建筑和剧场的遗迹，貌似好像还有维纳斯的故乡也在那里，地中海浪漫的风情之地，人又不多，很值得一去啊

I didn't know what to expect but I was pleasantly pleased, there are more tombs than I expected covering quite a large area, and we really enjoyed exploring them, some of the steps were a bit steep, there are plenty of information boards so you always knew what you were looking at, well worth a visit, the bus stops outside which was handy.

This is a wonderful place just to walk around. It is quite a big site. Please note that most ofThe tombs require walking down stone steps. So do wear sensible shoes.

Totally amazed by this place. It exceeded my expectations. Well worth a visit. Very tranquil place and amazing views. Words can't describe how you feel when entering the tombs. Just make sure you wear good footwear as very uneven under foot. Not like I did totally inappropriately dressed!!!

Although it wasn't kings buried there the Tomb of the kings has an amazing aura to it and a special feel. When we went in January it was very quiet and we were often alone within the tombs giving a spooky feel to it. Price wise it was excellent value and would recommend to anyone.

A really good experience, somewhere between 4 and 5 stars but gave 5 because of all the negative comments from others. It's a really under-developed site and this has pros and cons. On the positive side, you can basically walk around/in all the tombs which is incredible. There is also an abundance of wildlife (lizards, birds, butterflies etc) and a great backdrop of the beautiful sea. On the negative side, there are very few facilities and the fact you can physically touch the ruins means that there are some plebs who will scrawl their name and a date and it is also a concern that there will be permanent damage caused. Though from a tourist's perspective, it's fantastic.

This is an interesting site in that is a burial site for rich merchants (not Kings). There are several tombs all of which have been looted but it good to see how the wealthy were buried a long time ago.

The tombs of the Kings are spread over a vast area and are carved out of solid rock. They date from the 4th century BC.High Officials rather than Kings were buried here though the tombs were so magnificent they were known as the Tombs of the Kings.Some tombs have Doric columns, some frescoed walls Tombs 3,4 and 8 are the most impressive. Some are reached by stairs leading to lower courts.The site was looted long before excavations began and it's easy to imagine what treasures would have been buried there.The site closes at 5.00pm during the winter. As there are lots of uneven surfaces, sensible shoes are required.There is also very little shade so a sunhat and water are essential.

The tombs are very intesting with good information supplied at each part of the site. A good place to explore but be careful on climbing in some of the tombs. Car park being upgraded when we visited.Be aware of the lack of shade on sunny days.Worth a visit

We visited here on the coldest day in Paphos for at least 25 years apparently. It had snowed on the beach. By the time we went the worst of the cold weather had blown over, but it was far from warm. Very cheap to get in, and the site is extensive, so we vowed to return on a warmer day and enjoy the many tombs. Some are amazing.
