Rhodes Island is not only known for its gorgeous beaches and medieval architecture, but also for the rich history and culture it offers. Among the many ancient and historical sites on the island, the community of Lindos stands out as a significant commerce center and is considered one of Greece's most fascinating ancient sites. The island's past is also preserved at the Archaeological Museum of Rhodes, which houses discoveries from excavations in ancient Kamiros, one of the three ancient towns. Additionally, if you happen to wander along the paved streets of the old city, you'll be able to explore the largest and finest preserved walled medieval cities in Europe. The Palace of the Knights, the first fortress constructed by knights, is also worth a visit. It houses a byzantine museum devoted to the history of Rhodes and occasionally hosts significant cultural events and exhibits.
