Travel to Rhodes - Greece
Lindos is situated about 50 km from the city of Rhodes, which is also the main port of the island. Always, on my travel trips, I was fascinated by small towns and villages that have retained their original form from the past.
Narrow stone streets, colorful shutters, flowers, trees and small taverns in which you can hide from the heat. Hmm, now I am almost describing the village of Lindos. Pleasant village also falls to the Greek national historic sites. The movement of vehicles through the streets of the village of Lindos is prohibited, as well as the hotels here in the village you will not find.
Lindos village even stands out for something: it is Situated on the slopes of a hill with a splendid view to tha bay and over the sea. At the top of the hill above the village stand historic Acropolis. The streets and squares are decorated with cobblestone and the buildings were built in Bizantyne and Arabic style and the style of Rhodian
