Church of Paraportiani

Lovely Byzantine church overlooking the sea.

Reviewed By yunezj1 - Miami Beach, United States

If you go to Mykonos, please make sure to visit this church. It is just such a stunning and a not to be missed site. This is the oldest church in Mykonos which dates back to the late 14th century. It consists in 5 churches in one. They were not all built at once but rather added as time passed by throughout the centuries.

The Church of the Panagia

Reviewed By The_Running_Tenor - Croydon, United Kingdom

We really didn't get on with Lindos; parking atrocious, too crowded and difficult to navigate. Fortunately we found what we were looking for more by luck and suddenly spotting the bell tower. It costs €2, you won't be allowed to take pictures and both men and women will need to cover bare legs and shoulders (coverings provided) but it's well worth it if you like churches. It's also nice and cool inside. The main building is completely covered in frescoes of bible stories with a "doom" picture at the back representing the day of judgement.There is a small exhibition of religious artifacts in a side chapel. It's all kept in good condition and very atmospheric with Greek orthodox church music playing. Probably the best €2 you'll spend on the island!

Kahal Kadosh Shalom Synagogue

From the 1st of November we are closed for the public. If you wish to visit us please contact us by phone or by email in order to make an appointment.

Reviewed By adelaidejane2017 - Adelaide, Australia

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.
