The Sanctuary of Aphrodite, the ruins of which lie not too far from Paphos in the village of Kouklia (the site of the former city-state of Paleo-Paphos), is one of the most important Antique shrines on the island, dedicated to the goddess of love, beauty and fertility. Although only several fragments of the groundwork and columns are left of the "100-halls" temple, it remains espeically spectacular and monumental in its proportions, emitting the unique, unrivalled atmosphere of an ancient sacred site.

The Cypriots worshipped a goddess of fertility from as early as the Chalcolithic period (3900–2500 BC).[4] They depicted her as a woman with the obvious characteristics of maternity and modelled figurines of her in stone or clay, of which the larger ones became objects of adoration and their smaller counterparts were worn on the body. Others were placed in graves to protect the dead. The myth that Venus (known as Aphrodite in Greek) was born on the coast of Cyprus may be connected to the adoration of this fertility goddess.
