The Medieval City of Rhodes is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that transports visitors back to the era of the Knights of St. John. Encircled by formidable fortifications, the Old Town is a maze of cobblestone streets lined with Gothic palaces, mosques, and Byzantine churches. Highlights include the Palace of the Grand Master and the Street of the Knights. Visitors can explore the ramparts for sweeping views of the harbor and city, or get lost in the bustling markets and quiet courtyards that reveal layers of history from Byzantine, medieval, and Ottoman periods.

- Walk the entire length of the Street of the Knights, the best-preserved medieval street in Europe
- Climb the ramparts for panoramic views of the harbor and the fortified walls
- Visit the Palace of the Grand Master, a restored fortress-palace with mosaics and medieval artifacts
