Rhodes

Rhodes, the most beautiful island in the world with the greatest cultural heritage, endless beaches and the highest level of tourist services.

The island of Rhodes is located at the crossroads of two major sea routes of the Mediterranean between the Aegean Sea and the coast of the Middle East, as well as Cyprus and Egypt.

The meeting point of three continents, it has known many civilizations. 
Throughout its long history the different people who settled on Rhodes left their mark in all aspects of the island's culture: art, language, architecture.

Its strategic position brought to the island great wealth and made the city of Rhodes one of the leading cities of the ancient Greek world. 
Rhodes is the largest island in the Dodecanese. Its capital city, located at its northern tip, is the capital of the Prefecture with the Medieval Town in its centre.

In 1988 the Medieval Town was designated as a World Heritage City.

The Medieval Town of Rhodes is the result of different architectures belonging to various historic eras,

predominantly those of the Knights of St. John.

With its bright green hills, rich green valleys and uninterrupted line of golden beaches, Rhodes is truly a blessed place.

Add in the excellent facilities for tourism, the island’s special blend of cosmopolitan and traditional, and numerous cultural and archaeological sites and you’ve got the perfect holiday destination.

The Colossus of Rhodes was a statue of the Greek titan-god of the sun Helios, erected in the city of Rhodes, on the Greek island of the same name, by Chares of Lindos in 280 BC.

One of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World, it was constructed to celebrate Rhodes' victory over the ruler of Cyprus, Antigonus I Monophthalmus, whose son unsuccessfully besieged Rhodes in 305 BC.

Before its destruction in the earthquake of 226 BC, the Colossus of Rhodes stood over 30 metres (98 feet) high, making it the tallest statue of the ancient world at the time.

The Rhodes combines greater variety of activities for visitors at very low prices.
