Lindos - Cycling Greece, Part 2 - CycleBlaze

Lindos

From Rhodes we cycled south along the northeast coast, to Lindos. This was not our favorite ride of the trip - not the most scenic in general, and with more traffic in spots than we've encountered. For about half of the ride we had no choice but the main highway, which was safe but busy enough to not really be pleasant.

We thought Lindos itself though was amazing - really a beautiful spot, and a delight to explore. We stayed in a great little apartment complex (Xenones) on an alley in the heart of town, and spent some happy hours over the next two nights and mornings walking through the maze of its streets, climbing up to the fortress, and enjoying its restaurants. It's a place we'd love to see again some year.
