If you can manage a really arduous ascent, the Monolithos castle is a real highlight of Rhodes. The architecture is unspectacular but the views are amazing and the extremely precarious position on the jagged cliff top is something to be witnessed

While it is quite a drive from Rhodes town, over 50 kilometers, Monolithos Castle was well worth the trip to visit it. Not only was it great to experience a 500 plus year old castle in Greece, a place you do not normally equate with castles, but it is built right on cliffs dropping into the sea, providing a breathtaking view of the whole area.
