Rhodes Town, the beating heart of Rhodes Island in Greece, is the ultimate destination for history enthusiasts and beach lovers alike. Home to around 50,000 people, this thriving city is a testament to the remarkably preserved history, dating back to 408 BC when it was formed by Ialyssos, Kamiros, and Lindos. Ancient wonders coexist harmoniously with modern comforts, bestowing upon Rhodes an irresistible charm.

Through the centuries, the baton of Rhodes Town’s sovereignty has passed between civilizations, each leaving indelible marks on its historical tapestry. This melting pot of cultures reached its zenith under Hospitallier rule when the impressive Medieval city of Rhodes was constructed, earning a UNESCO World Heritage Site status. The Italian occupation and subsequent decimation during World War II left Rhodes Town scathed yet unbeaten, with restoration work transforming it into the wonder it is today.

Situated at the island's northeastern tip and surrounded by the sparkling Aegean Sea, Rhodes is famed as the erstwhile site of the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World. This city is an important urban centre teeming with landmarks from antiquity and the Hospitaller period. The three major ports and an efficient public transport system ensure easy connectivity to mainland Greece and the surrounding islands. Add to this, the modern amenities like the state general hospital, private medical facilities, and the bustling Diagoras International Airport, and you have a city that effortlessly straddles the past and the present.
