I am very happy to see that Greece is investing in preserving its architecture and mediaeval cities. Rhodes has so much beauty, that I would hate to see it go away overtime because of environmental or other damages and erosion. Their plan is to create three main sectors of the city which will be the monumental, residential, and commercial areas. I'm very curious to see how this project will turn out and how the funds will be allocated. Have you heard anything about this?

 
I live on Rhodes. I will believe it IF it happens.

I'm thinking the same thing...I've seen a lot of these ambitious projects fall apart

I hope it doesn't fall apart, but I am skeptical as well. If there is follow through on this, it could be exciting!
 
Yes, I have heard about this project, and I think it's a great idea. I'm not sure how the funds will be allocated, but I hope they will be used wisely to preserve as much of the city's history and beauty as possible. Rhodes is a beautiful place, and it would be a shame to see it deteriorate over time. I have a friend working for https://www.thefinitygroup.com/financial-planning-for-physicians, and sometimes we have interesting chats about funding such projects. It's not as easy as it might seem.
I look forward to seeing the results!

Can You Walk the City Walls in Rhodes?

I’m starting to plan a visit to Rhodes and keep seeing photos of the medieval Old Town walls, which made me wonder how accessible they actually are. I know the city walls are a major part of Rhodes’ history, but I’m curious about the practical side of visiting them.

Can you actually walk along the city walls, or are they mostly something you admire from below? If walking is possible, are there specific entrances or sections that are open to the public? I’m also wondering how long it takes and whether it feels more like a short stroll or a full, immersive walk.

For those who’ve done it, is it worth prioritizing? Are there good viewpoints from the walls, or parts that stand out more than others? I’d love to hear what the experience is like and whether it’s something you’d recommend fitting into a first visit to Rhodes.

stupid taverna review

Just read a review for a taverna in monolithos on Rhodes .The writer stated they had the best mousaka on the whole of Rhodes. They could not possibly been to every taverna on the island .I cannot make that claim & I have been on Rhodes for over 16 years

Best beaches on Rhodes for snorkeling?

I'm considering a family trip to Rhodes and am curious about the best beaches for snorkeling. I've heard that Anthony Quinn Bay is a top spot, known for its clear waters and marine life. Kallithea Springs also comes up frequently, praised for its underwater scenery. For families, Tsambika Beach is mentioned as having gentle slopes into the sea, making it suitable for children. Agathi Beach is noted for its calm, shallow waters and sandy bottom, ideal for kids and beginners. Glystra Beach is another family-friendly option, with clear waters and a small rock island that's great for snorkeling.

Has anyone snorkeled at these beaches or have other recommendations? I'm looking for spots that are both exciting for snorkeling and safe for children. Any tips on equipment rental or guided tours would also be appreciated!
