Rhodes island is part of the Dodecanese group of islands; it is the capital and the biggest of the group with a population of about 98.000 inhabitants. It is also the most touristic of all these islands, welcoming a great amount of package tour or individual tourists attracted by the high level of sunshine and the interminable sandy beaches of the island.
But the beauties and attributes of Rhodes are not stopping here. The island still has unspoiled villages which have kept their authentic colors despite the high level of tourism, nesting in the foothills of the island’s mountains. Other beautiful villages, such as Kameiros, Ialyssos, and Lindos are testifying, with their fine architecture, about Rhodes classical past.
