Rhodes is the principal city of the Greek island of Rhodes, in southeastern Aegean Sea and the capital of the Dodecanese prefecture. Its has a population of approximately 80,000. Rhodes has been famous since antiquity as the site of Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. The citadel of Rhodes, built by the Hospitalliers, is one of the best preserved medieval towns in Europe which in 1988 was designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. The City of Rhodes is a popular international tourist destination. 

The green, fertile island of Rhodes is one of the most developed tourist destinations in the Mediterranean. On its northern tip, the capital, Rhodes Town, lies within impressive medieval fortifications built by the Knights of St John, a military religious order who made it their power base from 1309 to 1522. It was taken by the Ottoman Turks in 1522, hence the proud minarets that punctuate its skyline. Now a UNESCO World Heritage site, its cobbled streets are crammed with boutique hotels, rustic tavernas and souvenir shops.

Cruise ships dock in the Commercial Port, just a 5-minute walk from the old town.
Sightseeing
Its a joy to wander through the pedestrian-only, cobbled streets of Rhodes Towns old town, protected by 14th-century fortifications measuring 4km (2.5 miles) in length. The top attraction is the vast 14th-century Palace of the Grand Masters, housing a museum tracing the islands history. To reach it, walk up Ippoton Street, lined with ‘inns, each one representing a different country from where the knights originated. Close by, the 15th-century Knights Hospital houses the Archaeological Museum, while the nearby Byzantine Museum displays religious icons and frescoes in the former cathedral.

Many of the outdoor scenes of The Guns of Navarone (starring Gregory Peck, David Niven and Anthony Quinn) and Escape to Athena (starring Roger Moore and Telly Savalas) were filmed on the Island of Rhodes.
 

The city of Rhodes is situated in the north-east tip of the island and forms a triangle from north to south. It is the smallest municipality of the island in terms of land area and the largest in population. It borders with the Aegean Sea in the north, the east and the west and with the municipalities of Ialysos and Kallithea in the south.The island of Rhodes is at a crossroads between Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. This has given the city and the island many different identities, cultures, architectures, and languages over it long history. Its position in major sea routes has given Rhodes a very rich history. The island has been inhabitated since about 4000 BC (Neolithic Period).Both city and island population continue to grow contrary to national levels the city has an official population of 54,000, but the actual population is estimated between 75 and 80,000. This is caused by many permanent residents of the city registering in their place of birth during the census. Thus the citys total population, as counted by the census, is less than the number of people actually residing in the city. Currently it is estimated that 80,000 people reside permanently in the city although last census showed only 54,000.

Esther says: "Sowas lässt sich kaum beschreiben, das muss man gesehen und erlebt haben, dass es sowas noch gibt:-)! Das Haus verfügt nun wirklich über jeden Komfort, den man braucht, um sich zu Hause zu fühlen. Claudia ist eine äusserst grosszügige und zuvorkommende Gastgeberin alles was sich im Haus befand durften wir nutzen. Kein x-males abwaschen am Tag, weil es knapp für jedes Familienmitglied eine Gabel oder ein Glas hat, von allem ist mehr als genug vorhanden. Genauso gut ausgestattet ist der Rest des Hauses. Besonders Freude hat mir gemacht, dass der Kühlschrank bereits über Inhalt verfügte, ich konnte mich nur noch erschöpft auf die tollen Gartenmöbel niederlassen, die erste Flasche Wein öffnen und die ersten Oliven geniessen...den Innenhof haben wir für manch gemütliches Apéro oder Lesestündchen genutzt. Die Lage des Hauses, die Ambiance im ruhigeren Teil der prächtigen Altstadt von Rhodos ist einmalig, ein paar Schritte entfernt findet sich ein Bijou von einem Minimarket mit sehr freundlicher Bedienung. Auch der Fournos (Bäckerei) ist in 5 min erreichbar. Meinerseits gibts nichts anzufügen, nur top:-))"
