The picturesque village of Lindos is situated 55 kilometres from the city of Rhodes, on the eastern coast of the island. The traditional village stretches on the feet of the ancient Acropolis hill, which is crowned with a Doric temple of Athena and a mediaeval fortress. Winding pebbled streets, white-washed houses, stone-built mansions, Byzantine churches and decorated archways leading to pebbled patios give Lindos its unique character.
