THE MEDIEVAL CITY OF RHODES
The magnificent medieval city of Rhodes is the largest of its kind in Europe and it is characterized by UNESCO as a monument of world cultural heritage. It offers a unique experience to visitors with its neat captivate talent to combine yesterday and today. Dominated by the imposing Palace of the Grand Master this fortificated Medieval City is surrounded by moats and walls that count up to 4 klm in total.

ANCIENT STADIUM
On the top of Monte Smith, where one can enjoy a unique picturesque view of the town and the seashore, lays the Temple of Apollo and a little further, the impressive ancient open-air stadium.

MUSEUMS
For those who are fond of antiquities but also are anxious to meet the history and culture of Rhodes a number of museums is available, most of them found in the Medieval City of Rhodes, such as the Archaeological museum, the Byzantine museum, the Rodian house, the Municipal Art Gallery etc.

FILERIMOS
The Monastery of Our Lady and the remains of the ancient acropolis of Ialysos, one of the three ancient cities of Rodos, are found on the hill of Filerimos. Visitors can walk along a 'Golgotha', a tree sheltered pathway with a series of shrines with scenes of the Passion. This footway leads to an enormous imposing cross, from the top of which one can cherish the outstanding view of villages and bright green valleys that are generously stretched around.

THE VALLEY OF BUTTERFLIES (PETALOUDES)
A valley, stocked by pine and storax trees, loaded with brown-red butterflies (a moth of panaxia quadripunktaria) from mid June to September. A pride of nature with narrow rock walkways, lakes decorated by water-lilies, rustic bridges, running waters and resting places. A smell of retsina spreads around all the way to the top of the valley together with a fresh caress of the aura.

KAMIROS
The smallest of the three ancient cities forming the Rodian state, is located on the west part of the island. More isolated and conservative than commercial Lindos and aristocratic Ialysos, it retained its rural character throughout antiquity. The remains of the city is a characteristic example of Hellinistic urban layout and design, with a division into zones of public and private buildings, its arrangement around the natural slopes of the hill , and its chess-board system of streets.
