Rhodes Old Town

posted by cdunkle on 10 August 2010 at 13:15

I don't think a trip to Rhodes would really be complete without getting lost for several hours in the beautiful Old Town. It is one of the oldest surviving medieval towns in the world but has elements which date back much further. Go in through the Eleftheria gate, see the ruins in the Simi square and make sure you spend some time on the Street of the Knights. Other than that, revel in your inability to get your bearings and make sure you stop for a traditional meal in one of the Old Town's many diners.

Lindos

posted by qroby on 10 August 2010 at 13:06

I think Lindos is ann absolute must for anyone visiting Rhodes. Its a site of great antiquity and of incredible beauty. After a steep ascent you'll get to the Acropolis which has beautiful sweeping views of the Aegean. Some of the buildings on the Acropolis date back to the 4th century BC. The doric temple of Athena Lindia and the enormous staircase of the propylae are both highlights.

Filerimos

posted by hhook on 10 August 2010 at 12:59

The peak of Mt Filerimos is 267 km above sea level and affords spectacular views down to Ixia bay and the Aegean beyaond it. Its a beautiful sight and with an approach through thick forrests makes a great excursion. At the top of the hill is the Monastery of Filerimos which sits on the sight of the Ialyssos Acropolis. In its current incarnation, it is an attractive structure built by the Italian occupation which sits in peacock gardens. Well worth a visit.

Archaeological Museum of Rhodes

posted by DVC_Chris on 30 May 2009 at 19:28

The island of Rhodes has a rich history, dating back thousands of years, and when I visited the area on my first visit, I learned about it at the Rhodes Archeological Museum. In addition to the artifacts that date back to the first settlement on the island, the building itself is worth a visit itself, as it was first built as a hospital during the crusades.
