Bees and beekeeping are a super important part of Greek culture, the environment and agriculture! They have an amazing bee museum in Rhodes where you can learn all about the history of beekeeping and even see transparent beehives so you can see the bees in action!! I found out about it through this link https://www.greekboston.com/travel/bee-museum-rhodes/
 
I have been there a few times & bought some of their products .For example bee propolis cream is a good healer.Propolis is what the bees use to line their hives . Bee hives are reputered to be more healthy than a hospital operating theatre .

Propolis is amazing! I always buy it when i'm in Greece because it's so hard to find in the U.S.! Although I've seen it pop up in a few organic stores

What Should I Visit in Rhodes Old Town?

I'm thinking about visiting Rhodes in May of next year, and one of the places I'm most excited about exploring is Rhodes Old Town. I've seen photos of the medieval streets, historic buildings, and charming little shops, and it looks like such an interesting place to spend some time.

I know that the Palace of the Grand Master and the Street of the Knights are two of the main attractions, and I'd definitely like to see both. However, I'm also interested in discovering some of the lesser-known places that might be easy to overlook.

For those who have visited, what would you recommend seeing in Rhodes Old Town? Are there particular streets, historical sites, churches, shops, or restaurants that are worth seeking out?

I'm also curious how much time I should set aside. Is one full day enough to explore, or would you recommend spending more time there?

What Part of Rhodes Feels Most “Local”?

I might be visiting friends in Rhodes this summer, and I’m trying to figure out which parts of the island feel the most local and authentic versus heavily touristy.

Don’t get me wrong, I’ll definitely check out the major spots and beaches, but I usually enjoy the places where you can actually slow down a little, grab a coffee, sit at a taverna, and get more of a feel for everyday life on the island.

My friends have mentioned that Rhodes has very different vibes depending on where you are, especially once you get away from the main tourist areas.

So I’m curious what people here would recommend. Are there any places that really capture the atmosphere of the island beyond the typical tourist experience?
