Largely rebuilt by the Italians this is a very beautiful building - lovely views from the windown and lots and lots of interesting stuff for history buffs - beautiful mosaic floors nicked from Kos. You do get a feel for how the palace was during the crusades.

For a small charge, this Synagogue provides entrée into the remarkable life stories of the Jewish people of Rhodes. The interior of the Synagogue is beautiful with its pebbled floor and light filled interior. It provides a calm and contemplative space to reflect on the generations of Jewish life revealed in the adjacent museum.

We were so surprised to find very little information about this site. It is truly amazing and well worth a visit. We got a taxi up to the Acropolis and spent a little over an hour exploring the site. Our kids (aged 7 & 10) loved it as well. The stadium in particular is fabulous. We then slowly walked back down to our hotel stopping en-route for refreshments. It was a lovely way to spend a morning.

Entering the Click Tower you buy a ticket including a free drink. After climbing a lot of wooden steps we got a fantastic view of the city. A must to do in Rhodes old Town.
