The medieval town of Rhodes, a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1988, [1] was developed without specific planning around the fortress-citadel of Rhodes, probably after the earthquake of 515. [2] The fortress was divided into two distinct urban forms, Kolakio north and Chora south. Kolakio includes the well-known street of the Knights, the Palace of the Grand Master or Castello, the Hospital that has been turned into a museum, temples of the Order and other important buildings. In the Chora lies the Turkish bazaar around the Suleiman Mosque, the old market and other buildings of tourist interest. According to a concise description on the official UNESCO website, the Ospitalians of the Order of St. John of Jerusalem occupied Rhodes Market for two and a half centuries, from 1309 to 1523, transforming the city into a strong fortress because of the particular fluidity and widespread conflicts of the time. The city was later successively occupied by Turkish [4] and Italian occupation. [5] [6] It is considered one of the oldest active medieval cities and the meeting point of many cultures.
Old town of rhodos is a great place to be, as the historical buildings and street are kept so good, u feel like you are going back in time to the middle ages, castles knights,stone paved streets, and lots of history. But - the place is filled with tourist traps all over, - over priced street restaurants eith waiters trying to pull you in, extremly not worthy money exchange points, and plenty of adidos, reebuk, nyke and guchi that the sellsman promises you they are real . Some how they dont break the authenticity of the old town scene, cause this is probably exactly how it was happening during the middle ages
Rhodes is so much different to the other quieter cities, its surrounded by a huge wall. The hustle and bustle of the place is overwhelming but they are really friendly people. So many shops, resteraunts, castles and the Wall that the knights built its all to see. The waiters entice you in for food and drink and you just sit and watch the world go by. They even have there own parrots, great photo opportunities aspecially with the feral cats that roam about. A day isn't long enough but a few days would be nice, so many lovely eateries that sit above the main street.cant wait. Brilliant.
Superb value!! Only €6 entrance fee for the palace, €12 if you want to visit several other museums as well. I think there's about 150 rooms in this place, it certainly takes a while to walk around, allow 2 to 3 hours. Very grand but not too opulent, kind of down-to-earth grandeur if that's possible. The walk in to the palace is via the empty moat, at which point you get an impression of the size of the building. Totally impressed by the value of this attraction, in the UK this would be £25 to visit easily! Definitely put this on your list of things to see in Rhodes!
Very grand structure. The Marine or Sea Gate (Πύλη Θαλασσινή) was the main entrance to the town from the harbour. Its defensive towers have a representative task more than defence in facts due to the reduced space between the waterfront and the walls no army could have ever attempted an attack from this side of the fortifications. During World War II the Allied bombings destroyed the upper part of the North tower. In 1951 the gate was restored by the Greek administration together with the Gate of Saint Paul.
This is a very touristy place in the morning and you will probably be bored with the heat and all the people around. You have to go here at night. It transform it from a busy tourist place to a real blast from the past at night. It is much more convenient to walk and explore at night, plus it's breezy and it feels very relaxed. this is a really nice place even to just hangout and watch the lights, old buildings and start imagining what was happening here when they just built it. Must visit place.
