A beautiful city

Rhodes is a beautiful city. On a cruise I recently took, Rhodes and Dubrovnik were the cities that I liked by far. The atmosphere is great, and while it was too hot, it did not detract from this city beautiful at all.

Rhodes!

The daughter of the sun.

La hija del sol.

Una isla que es la joya del mar Egeo, situada en el extremo norte de la isla , espléndida . Toda ella rezuma historia de los diferentes periodos los minoicos ,micénicos , doricos , helénicos , romanos y turcos . Aun a día de hoy, Rodas está llena de colosos , de mitología griega en sus rincones con la huella del pasado a nuestros pies. Junto a su espíritu medieval que tan bien guardado esta , entre sus murallas . Sera a través de su aeropuerto Diagoras por donde accedo a la capital del Dodecaneso y desde allí , iremos diseñando el resto de las islas , según los horarios de sus ferry y las islas previstas a visitar , que ahora os puedo decir que fuerón ocho en el Dodecaneso y ocho en las Cicladas , que me han encantado . Ya en el corazón neurálgico de la ciudad , su puerto colosal Mandraki nos da la bienvenida nada mas llegar ¡ es un lugar que a cualquier hora y vayas donde vayas, estas entorno a él . Su imponente malecón mantiene en sus dos esbeltas columnas , de piedra dos animales emblemáticos en su pedestal " Elafos " el ciervo y " Elafina " cierva , en bronce . Recuerdan aquella mítica figura de aquel coloso de la antigüedad , una de las Siete Maravillas del Mundo . Un puerto antiguo que aloja yates , barcas de pesca y transbordadores de viajeros . A día de hoy recibe una gran afluencia de cruceros llenos de turismo , que están pocas horas , pero muy intensas dentro de la ciudad amurallada , sera a su partida cuándo disfrutas de la calma y tranquilidad de esta privilegiada isla .
An island that is the jewel of the Aegean Sea, located on the northern tip of the island, splendid. All she oozes history of different periods Minoan, micnicos, Doric, helnicos, Romans and Turks.

Its imposing quay maintains in its two slender columns, stone two emblematic animals on its pedestal "Elafos" Hart and "Elafina" doe bronze.

Rhodes scale

Escala en Rodas

Cuando llegamos a Rodas, el barco nos deja a pocos metros del casco histórico de la ciudad. El recorrido que vemos en las fotos es el siguiente: Lo primero es la escultura a la salida del puerto que nos conduce a las ruinas de la Iglesia de Santa María de la Anunciación, luego el monumento a las víctimas del Holocausto Judío, justo donde fueron reunidos los habitantes hebreos de Rodas, para ser deportados, el Hospicio de Santa Catalina, el Hospital de los Caballeros, hoy Museo Arqueológico, la Galería Municipal de Arte de Rodas, la calle de los Caballeros, el Palacio-Castillo del Gran Maestre, al que no pude entrar porque se había desplomado una parte, la Torre del Reloj. La entrada da derecho a subir a lo alto, desde donde hay una vistas realmente buenas de Rodas y a un refresco en la terraza. Vale la pena y finalmente la imagen de uno de los dos famosos ciervos que ocupan el lugar de los pies del Coloso de Rodas. El otro estaba en restauración. La escala fue corta pero intensa.

La ville de Rhodes, à la pointe nord de l'île du même nom, est un haut lieu touristique. Son port voit défiler de nombreux bateaux de croisière. Rhodes comporte au moins trois districts : la ville moderne qui ceinture l'ancienne acropole et s'étend aussi le long du rivage nord-ouest, domaine des plages, où s'alignent joliment d'anciens cabanons de pêcheurs, heureusement préservés des promoteurs ; le quartier de Mandraki qui affiche nettement son architecture italienne du début du 20ème siècle ; et, bien entendu, la cité médiévale, blottie derrière ses remparts. A l'intérieur de l'enceinte fortifiée, se trouve la majorité des monuments historiques. Les restaurants se rencontrent en tous lieux ; les loueurs de véhicules se concentrent davantage à la jonction entre Mandraki et la ville moderne, aux environs du Casino.

Rhodes has at least three districts: the modern city that surrounds the ancient acropolis and also extends along the northwest shore, area beaches, which align nicely old fishing huts, fortunately preserved promoters; neighborhood Mandraki which clearly displays its Italian architecture of the early 20th century, and, of course, the medieval city, tucked behind its walls.

Rodi forma parte dell'arcipelago del Dodecaneso. Ha come capoluogo la città omonima. Fu sottomessa in passato sia dall’impero romano che bizantino, poi conquistata dai Cavalieri di San Giovanni tra 1306 e 1522. Storia, storia, storia... Ma che barba... Una cosa che mi ha lasciato perplesso è il fatto che nel porto di Rodi si possa fare il bagno. Davvero non sto scherzando, devono rispettare delle leggi severe in cui le grosse imbarcazioni all'entrata del porto devono spegnere i motori e farsi trainare sino al porto.
Rhodes is part of the Dodecanese. Its capital the city of the same name. Was submitted in the past is that the Roman Empire Byzantine Empire, then conquered by the Knights of St. John between 1306 and 1522. History, history, history ... But that beard ... One thing that left me puzzled is the fact that the port of Rhodes can swim. Really I'm not kidding, must comply with the strict laws in which the big boats at the harbor entrance must shut down the engines and be towed to the port.

Rodi e' la più grande isola del Dodecaneso. E' ricca di storia e di cultura nonché di un mare stupendo. Non perdetevi un giro nella old town tra la via dei Cavalieri e il palazzo dei Gran Maestri. Lontana circa 60km dalla città di Rodi, sorge l'acropoli di Lindos con il villaggio ai suoi piedi. La vista e' mozzafiato e incantevole. Non perdetevi un bagno nella baia di San Paolo proprio sotto l'acropoli.

The view and 'breathtaking and enchanting. Do not miss a swim in St Paul's Bay just below the Acropolis.
