Acropolis of Lindos

A whole day and evening may not be enough! If you would like to swim, the most promising place is at the St. Paulis bay, at the back of the Acropolis. This is where apostle Paul once stepped on Rhodian soil. From there you can see the castle and temple from a whole different angle. You will find the most important archaeological monuments within the enclave of the Citadel, although quite a number of interesting remains are scattered at various points within the town and in its immediacies. A road leads high up to the Acropolis. The medieval walls are the first ruins you will encounter - fortifications built by the Crusaders (early 14th century) on the remains of earlier defenses, both Byzantine and ancient.
