We took a few photos while we were on holiday in Rodos. 8) I thought you might like to see what the place looks like. Rodos town as seen from Monte Smith: Mandraki harbour: Sokratous street, the main shopping street in the old town: The d'Ambois gate: One of the entrances from Mandraki harbour: The akropolis: The old stadium: Lovely plantings in the middle of the main road to Rodos town: I hope you like the photos. I'm putting lots more photos in my blog when I have time, so you can see more there.
Thank you toni. More will come, also from the median. I was hopping about with my camera in the middle of the road, and got a few amazed looks and a couple of horn honks. They drive like maniacs down there.
Rodos looks like an interesting place to visit Droopy. I just love the old buildings and the old stadium looks neat too.
Great photos Droopy. I love the architecture of old buildings. All the photos are lovely. I know you had a wonderful time and I will be looking forward to more photos.
I enjoy seeing the street scenes with wooden Turkish balconies, the old gates, the acropolis and staduim. It's been awhile ago, but I have walked in these places. Thanks so much for sharing these pics. They bring back good memories for me.
Thank you all. I must confess that I'm not terribly fond of the new part of Rodos town, but I could walk in the old town for days. There are so many ancient sites to visit too. The acropolis and stadium is just one of them.
For obvious reasons it reminds me so much of Malta where I spent one and a half years, and it looks as warm as well Thanks for the photos Droopy.
Malta also has an old crusader castle, doesn't it? I've seen photos from there. Hot is nice when you're on holiday.
I'm not much of a history buff I'm afraid but I wouldn't be surprised if it did. I spent most of my time there trying to keep cool
Oh just look at those beautiful blue skies and the sunshine!! I've almost forgotten what that yellow ball in the sky is all about. What a lovely place for a holiday.
I never brought the camera to the beach, which is a shame. The water is crystal clear, and very inviting.
