Woooow that is so shocking. Climate change is a scary thing. Was the island prepared for it? How much snow was there?
 
No really prepared.A lot of snow about 1 foot deep.My gareden & paths still covered.Yesterday & today declared public holidays so only supermarkets & pharmacies open.Police yesterday were stopping vehicles to check if they had snow chains.I mean where would you get snow chains on a place that has not had snow in 35 years.

Rhodes for History Lovers: Where Should You Go?

I've been to Rhodes before and absolutely loved the history there. Walking through the Old Town, visiting the Palace of the Grand Master, and exploring Lindos were some of my favorite experiences. There's a chance I may return in early fall this year or next year if the trip comes together.

This time, though, I'd be traveling with someone who is a serious history buff, so I feel like I need to take my planning up a notch. Beyond the well-known sites, what historical locations in Rhodes would you recommend? Are there any lesser-known ruins, museums, archaeological sites, or villages that history lovers shouldn't miss?

I'd also love suggestions for guided tours, books, or resources that helped you better understand the island's history before visiting. What would be on your must-see list for someone who wants to really dive into Rhodes' past?

shop & tavernas etc starting to open

tourists are arriving now so rhodes is starting to come back to life
