Rhodes - Rodini Valley

South of the town of Rhodes lies the beautiful Rodíni valley, with a park, a small zoo, a folk theater and a variety of attractive footpaths. 3km/2mi south of the new town, on Mt Áyios Stéfanos (Mount Smith; 111m/364ft; view), are the remains of the ancient acropolis, with fragments of temples. On the slopes of the hill are a stadion and a theater (restored).
