Pafos Gate

Pafos Gate Is One Of 3 Original Entrances To The Walled City Of Nicosia

Also called Porta San Domenico by the Venetians, Pafos gate is the western gate of the Venetian walls. The gate was a former weapons warehouse for the Ottoman Turks. The British later turned it into a police headquarters. It is now a simple roadway for traffic through the city wall.

The other 2 are Famagusta Gate and Kyrenia Gate which is the least maintained of the 3 entrances as it sits in the Turkish side of the city.
