Rodos

Rhodes island belongs to the Dodecanese group of islands; it is the capital and the largest of the group with a population of about 98.000 inhabitants. It is also the most touristic of all these islands, attracting a large number of package tour or individual tourists drawn by the high level of sunshine and the endless sandy beaches of the island.
But the beauties and features of Rhodes in Greece do not end here. The island still has untouched villages that have preserved their original colors despite the high level of tourism, nestled in the foothills of the island's mountains. Other lovely villages, such as Kameiros, Ialyssos, and Lindos are witnessing, with their fine architecture, about Rhodes classical past.
Another quality of Rhodes is its rich and diverse landscape that is dry and rocky around the coastlines, forming impressive rocky formations, and green of lush forests in its interior where the unique dama-dama deer live.
But the greatest asset of Rhodes is its capital (the City of Rhodes). It is a splendid medieval city, the largest inhabited medieval town in Europe, and its fortifications are regarded as the finest example of medieval architecture. In a few words, Rhodes is a magnificent island full of beauties, enchanting every visitor who has the opportunity to step on this incredible and unique place.
However, besides natural beauty, Rhodes has a long and rich cultural heritage. The various Cultural Unions and the newly-established University of Rhodes have given prestige to the island. Another contribution to the cosmopolitan image of Rhodes has made the famous movies that have been filmed on the island.
