u The City of Rhodes in certain literature has been likened to a valuable coin with two faces. One face is the old town, a fairy-tale place surrounded by medieval walls and traversed by the Street of the Knights of St. John. On either side of the road — is the old town I t with the inns, the of the and the of the Master. The of the coin modern an intense Hospital Knights palace Grand flip side is the city with night life, broad streets, large hotels, and hundreds of shops. The remainder of the island is crammed with sights worth seeing, from the archaeological sites to the fabulous beaches, from the valley with the but- terflies to the valley of sevenpools, from the Acroplis of Lindos to the underwater caves inKalith-ea. Known as the Island of the Sun, with its strong sun- light and clear waters, Rhodes captivated the AUSTIN crew from the day we approached its ports and held us spellbound until the day we sailed out. 6 :X V j
