About Rhodes

Rhodes is the largest of the Dodecanese islands, with a walled medieval town of the Knights of St John, white villages and long beaches in the sun.

Rhodes Old Town is a medieval city whose walls still stand, built by the Knights of St John. Their cobbled Street of the Knights climbs to the Palace of the Grand Master. The town is lived in, with restaurants, mosques and small shops in the lanes. The Colossus of Rhodes, a giant statue of the sun god Helios and one of the Seven Wonders of the ancient world, once stood somewhere in the city, though no trace remains.
