LOCAL ATTRACTIONS
- Rhodes an island to explore
When the gods divided the world between themselves, so an ancient legend goes, Helios (the sun god) noticed an island emerging from the sea. He was so fascinated by its beauty that he immediately asked Zeus whether he might have this island as his share. Rhodes was that island. An island that glided, and glides still, like a dolphin, over the waves in the transparent seas of the south-eastern Aegean, where West meets East. Wreathed in golden beaches, with bright green hills and valleys, and bathed in the light of the god Helios (her ancient patron), it is a place favoured by nature, made on a human scale.
Inhabited since prehistoric times, Rhodes quickly developed into an important financial and cultural centre of the ancient Greek world.
Its affluence, natural beauty and strategic position, endowed the early Rhodians with wealth, but, equally, it attracted other powers in each subsequent era, eager to possess the island.
The Romans, Knights of Saint John, Ottoman Turks and, later, the Italians, all left deep signs of their presence, but they always failed to sever the deep Greek roots of the island, which finally joined metropolitan Greece after the Second World War.
Rhodes today offers the visitor a plethora of all year round leisure alternatives, covering all types of tourist activity.
The natural beauty of the island, the monuments from her long and often turbulent history, a cosmopolitan character, as well as the warm hospitality generously offered by the people of Rhodes, and an excellent tourist infrastructure boasting the most modern hotels, all captivate the visitor.
This edition aims to present to visitors the distinctive attractions offered by each of the ten Municipalities of Rhodes, and to help them get to know the beauty of all corners of this lovely island, north and south.
The city of Rhodes was founded in 408 BC, when the citizens of Ialysos, Lindos and Kamiros decided to build a strong new island capital. The city plans were drawn up by Hippodamous, and Rhodes was soon admired as one of the most beautiful cities of the period. The new city quickly developed into a financial and cultural centre, but by the time it became a Roman, and later a Byzantine, dominion it has lost its ancient glory.In 1309 the Knights of Saint John conquered Rhodes and they built strong fortifications, transforming it into a thriving multinational medieval city. In 1523 Rhodes was by the Ottoman Turks, and the Greeks had to settle outside the walls, where they created the new districts known as "Marasia".
In 1912 Rhodes, as well as the whole of the Dodecanese, were seized by the Italians. The new rulers enhanced the architecture of the city with magnificent buildings, wide roads and squares.
It was not until 1948 that Rhodes officially became a part of Greece. The modern city of Rhodes is one of the biggest municipalities in the Greek islands, with about sixty thousand permanent residents.
It is the financial and cultural centre of the south-eastern Aegean, and successfully combines a lively present with a rich historical past. There are many reasons why Rhodes is one of the most popular resorts in the Mediterranean: the natural surroundings (crystal clear seas, many parks and recreational facilities), the bright sun, and the warm hospitality of the islanders themselves.
The city has an excellent tourist infrastructure and offers a wide variety of entertainment (night-life, sports, cultural events, and day trips to wonderful Lindos and neighbouring islands).
Finally, visitors have the opportunity to learn something of the eventful history of the city, visit the museums, or go sightseeing.
Rhodes is home to some unique and beautiful flora and fauna, much of which can be found just a short stroll from the main resorts but to get a true taste of what the island has to offer, exploring the interior is a must.
Here are some of the best places to visit to make the most of the island's nature...
- The Archaeological Museum of Rhodes
- The Palace of the Grand Master
- Church of Panaghia Kastrou
- The Hospice of St. Catherine
- Rhodes Aquarium
- Decorative Arts Museum of Rhodes
- Museum of Modern Greek Art of Rhodes
- The Folklore Museum in Apollonas
