Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes
The palace was built in the early 14th century by the Knights of Rhodes, who controlled Rhodes and some other Greek islands from 1309 to 1522, to house the Grand Master of the Order. After the island was captured by the Ottoman Empire, the palace was used as a command center and fortress.
Some parts of the palace were damaged by an ammunition explosion in 1856. After the Italian occupation of Rhodes in 1912, the Italian architect Vittorio Mesturino restored it between 1937 and 1940 and made it a holiday residence for the King of Italy, Victor Emmanuel III.

Touring the Sites of Old Town Rhodes | Clock Tower | Colossal Statue Site | Street of the Knights
Before we sailed on this Royal Caribbean Greek cruise, the stop in Rhodes was the one we knew least about and didn't care much for. But now that it's over, Rhodes was our favorite stop and the one we wish there was more time to spend on land.
This video starts with docking in the Port of Rhodes. We walked from the ship to the walled city of Rhodes around 8am. The city was pretty quiet and most shops had not yet opened. But we walked the streets and got a chance to see most places crowd-less, which turned out to be a great idea since 3 hours later, those same locations were filled with tourists.
Our real first stop was Socratous Garden, an outdoor cafe in old town Rhodes which is worth a visit and a meal. The crepe was spot on and the coffee's were good.
Then we stopped by the Suleman Mosque and the Hafiz Ahmed Agha Library for some great pictures you can see on Instagram (@SierrasTravel)
Across the street from the Mosque is the Medieval Clock Tower Roloi, which is the tallest structure in Old Town Rhodes and one you can climb. So we bought a 5 Euro ticket and climbed to the top. They also offer a free drink from the bar as part of the 5 Euro ticket.
Then we walked the Street of the Knights toward the Palace of the Grand Masters. Our tour of the Palace of the Grand Masters will be in a separate video that will be linked here:
We walked back and out of old town through the Freedom Gate and headed north toward the Mandraki Port. A lot of shops and restaurants line the street Pl. Eleftherias, which is the steet we walked along. A great idea to spend some time if you are in Rhodes for an extended period.
As we walked, we saw the Rhodes Windmills, boats to Lindos and harbour cruises, the Fort of St. Nicholas, Hirschkuh Statue and the site where the Colossus of Rhodes once stood. So quite a lot in a short distance. All worthy of photos.
In the interest of your time, we end the video here at around 13 min and continue with Part 2 to cover the rest of Rhodes. The link to Part 2 is here -

Discover RHODES TOWN, GREECE | Day Trip From Lindos | Things To Do On Rhodes Island
Take a step back in time as we spend a day visiting Rhodes Town. Here we explore the medieval streets, visiting several of attractions within Rhodes Old Town including the Street of Knights, the clock tower and Mandraki Harbour (which used to be the port of ancient Rhodes). However, our favourite thing to do in Rhodes Town is getting lost exploring the many tiny streets and alleyways that make up this beautiful town.
For lunch we visited Hermes Greek Grill House, which we would recommend for tasty gyros on a budget in Rhodes Town.
