Description
Lindos holidays can be enjoyed in the most picture perfect setting, enhanced with splendid watersports, excellent waterfront tavernas, rooftop restaurants, attractive bars, colourful shops and a charming labyrinth of narrow little alleyways. Superb scenery and sun drenched shingle beaches are a feast for the senses, as is the town itself, which is one of the prettiest in Greece.
For lazy days out, visit the village of Vlycha which is approximately four kilometres from Lindos village situated on the main Rhodes Town to Lindos highway.There's a deliciously tranquil beach there, where you can chill out as it never gets too crowded.
Above the neatly dusted, whitewashed village, rising to some 400 feet is a flat topped rock formation which is adorned with the magnificent ancient Acropolis. From the vantage point of the Acropolis, the view of this picturesque village and its surrounding bays with the ancient pillars of Lindian Athena towering above, is breathtaking. Appealing to all ages, with its varied nightlife and idyllic surroundings, Lindos is one of the most popular resorts in Rhodes.
With approximately 1000 inhabitants, Lindos is probably the most famous village in Greece and has proudly kept a lot of its traditional characteristics. The architecture of the Lindian houses is unique in the Greek world and many buildings date back to the 16th, 17th and 18th centuries, with renovation strictly regulated to ensure that the town retains its traditional style.
