The gymnasium of Pafos has not yet been discovered. The theatre, even though it has not been excavated, lies on the southern slope of the small Fabrica hill where there are visible remnants of its seats. From among the already mentioned temples of New Pafos, the only one identified is a small sanctuary of Apollo Hylates, situated outside the eastern walls of the town where the eastern cemetery also lies. The sanctuary, dating to the end of the 4th century B.C, is hewn out of the hard rock and consists of two adjoining, small chambers. An engraved inscription over the entrance to the first chamber indicates that the sanctuary is dedicated to Apollo.
