Places to visit in Пафос. Languages: en, he, ru

The whole floor of this room covers the plot of the Triumph of Dionysus. This is one of the largest rooms in the house, and it probably served as a dining room or a grand hall. Dionysus “trumping” his “campaign” to India is a plot, clearly inspired by the Roman imagination. Next, to it is depicted brothers Dioscuri - Castor and Pollux - remember the myth of Leda and Zeus from the house of Aion? Yes, everything is connected in the world of gods, fairy tales and mysteries. The most beautiful work of t this mosaic is the peacock. Dionysus is seated on a chariot, carried by panters.
