Rhodes is known for its ancient medieval fortification built by the Knights of St. John in the 14th century. It’s historic old town is the largest active medieval town in Europe. We wandered down the narrow streets and marveled at the thick stone walls.
From Rhodes we travelled to Lindos. Lindos is the site of an acropolis dedicated to Athena. It was built in 300 BC on the site of an earlier temple. Perched high above the ocean it has an impressive 360 degree view of the Aegean Sean and surrounding countryside.
After our tour, Bill and I strolled along the waterfront enjoying the beautiful day and admiring the medieval town walls.
