Images in this photo gallery are from Lindos town, situated on the on the east coast of the Greek island of Rhodes which is the largest of the Dodecanese Island group and one of the most popular Islands of Greece and the Mediterranean.
Laying below the Castle of the Knights of St John and on the slopes of the dramatic Acropolis crowned by 4th century BC Temple of Lindian Athena, the dazzling medieval whitewashed village of Lindos is a maze of narrow winding black and white tiled alleyways fronted by imposing doorways which lead to flower filled courtyards of the unique Lindian houses which were built by rich sea-captains during the 15th and 18th century's.
Viewed from the Acropolis is St Paul's Bay, which is an idyllic, secluded and almost enclosed cove with inviting indigo waters and a whitewashed chapel, dedicated to the Apostle St Paul.
The bay is named after Apostle Paul as he is said to have landed here in AD 43 bringing Christianity to Rhodes.
