The historic Old Port of Rhodes

Taking a giant ferry from the beautiful Santorini, you will arrive at the Old Port of Rhodes after just an overnight journey. This port, located at the northernmost tip of Rhodes, has a long history. It is said that this was once the site of the Colossus of Rhodes, one of the Seven Wonders of the World. Unfortunately, it was destroyed in an earthquake, and now only traces of history remain. There are not many strange legends about miracles here. As we know, there are indeed many ancient and spectacular wonders in the world, as if created by the gods. However, the ordinary and unpretentious port before us quietly showcases the sediment of time. Here, although those magnificent landscapes of the past are no longer present, you will find that even after the vicissitudes of history, the port still exists in people's sight with its resilience and charm. Walking along the shore of the port, you can see three unique windmill landmark buildings. They stand quietly there, as if telling stories of the past. Although these windmills are not one of the Seven Wonders of the World, they are a unique symbol of this area, adding a special charm to this land. The Old Port of Rhodes is a place full of history and culture. It is not just an ordinary port, but a place full of stories and memories. Whether it is the historical relics of the past or the windmill buildings that still exist today, they all add a unique charm to this port. Let us feel the sediment of history here and experience the reality and beauty of life.

Mandraki Marina & Port

Rhodes, Greece. Holiday destination 🏖️ 🏖️Environment/Facilities: The environment here is beautiful and the wind is a bit stronger at night. Everything else is good👍💞 💞Recommendation reason: The people here are very friendly. No matter what style you wear, they will smile at you when they meet you, and even talk to you💬 💰Per capita consumption: The consumption is not very high. I spent 15 euros in the restaurant and couldn’t finish it. In the end, I saw the cats and fed them. After they were full, there was still some food left, which was enough! Thumbs up 👍It cost 10 euros to go out to sea on a not particularly luxurious yacht, but it was nice to go around. 🗓️Itinerary: You can choose the city as the check-in time, no need to arrange the itinerary. Just use Google Maps to navigate. 📍Address: Rhodes Port, Greece (South Aegean Sea - Dodecanese)
