Walkabout, 12 June 2012
The citadel of Rhodes is a maze of narrow streets and home to around 6000 people. If you are spending a lot of time looking through camera viewfinders it's easy to get lost, which we managed a couple of times despite the free map.
Lunch
The first couple of restaurants we checked out were rather expensive, but we soon found a great snack bar serving pittas and Mythos in a quiet side street. And who wants a three-course meal at this time of day?
To get a real feel for the place you really should wander down the many side streets and alleyways. You'll see a lot of mopeds. Many of these streets are too narrow for cars. You'll also see quite a few cats. They are well fed.

Here's a couple more of Genie's photos.
Video
I hope that the video below gives you a flavour of the streets of Rhodes Old Town. It's longer than other videos you'll find on this blog (5:30) but I had a lot of footage and there's so much to see. Enjoy!Related Posts
