Rhodes

Rhodes is one of the most visited Greek islands. The island is famous for its sun, sea and sand: the ideal place for vacations. It is the third largest Greek island and, officially, the sunniest place in the Europe. Rhodes City is among the finest, not only in Greece but in the whole of the Mediterranean. It is situated at the island’s most northerly point and ringed by sea on the east and west. Rhodes (Rodos in Greek) combines the cosmopolitan character of a contemporary city with the picturesque of the medieval town, which gives the impression of having been untouched by the passage of time.

The city of Lindos in the south of the island has a very beautiful acropolis and is absolutely worth visiting. Other highlights include the excavations of Old Kamiros.
