ancient kamiros印象

Sadly our car hire ended up taking a bit of time otherwise we would have loved to have arrived in the early morning - it was hot, hot, hot under the baking sun!This place is incredible and well worth a wander around, I love imagining what life would have been like in the market, the houses/shops so visible along the main streets, and the ancient acropolis perched high on the hill overlooking the town. Definitely one of my favourite sites on Rhodes!

A pretty big site with lots to see. We enjoyed this but as we like ancient sites it just seemed like a circular tour. It really needed more than 45 mins to do it justice but we didn't hire a car and the cost of a taxi there would gave been prohibitive.

You pay 6 euros each and you get a small map of the area to explore but not much else. Just keep wondering about and you do get a sense of just how big this place was and the views are wonderful. There were "guides" about but not really for your benefit they are there to tell you where you can't go!

Kairos is the smallest of Rhodes three ancient cities forming the Rhodian state and on the west of the island, Lindos and Ialysos being the others. It dates back to Mycenaean times and has been carefully and thoughtfully excavated and preserved. It cost €4 for the entrance but is a small price to pay for so much history.It's in a beautiful setting but off the beaten track so a hire car is essential. We went early on a west coast adventure with this as a starting point so arrived about 10.30. It was very quiet and peaceful and we had a good look around before hoards of buses turned up causing havoc in the car park.

This is one of the most interesting cities I have visited as the ruins truly give you a sense of how the people of Kamiros would have lived. Tiny dwellings line the main streets and you get a real feel for how enclosed the city would have been. It is very well preserved and has lovely views out across the sea. Sadly, we couldn't spend as much time there as it was incredibly hot and there was very little shade around the main body of the ruins. There was a café on site, but it was extremely expensive and the service was surly to say the least, so take your own refreshments.

Not much to see here in Ancient Kamiros, literally just some rocks. Barely any information about it. Wouldn't have been so bad if it was free but we paid the same to get into Lindos Acropolis which was far more interesting and enjoyable!

This was my second visit here and I am dreaming of going back.Incredible ancient place with lots to see.Arrive early before the crowds and the hot sun so you can appreciate everything.I simply can`t wait until it is further revealed...Unmissable with picturesque views.Not sure if it is great for buggies but is great history lesson for sure.

Very interresting site and well conserved, especially the disposition of the former greek houses. The explanation leaflet given to the visitors at the entry is really needed to appreciate Kamiros

Kamiros, also known as the Greek Pompeii is the smallest of Rhodes three ancient cities which dates back to the 5th & 6th centuries. This well preserved site which runs down to a cliff that overhangs the sea has great views of little islets off Rhodes and the Mediterranean Sea. The ancient city was built on three levels. At the top of the hill is the acropolis with the temple of Athena Kamieras, a stoa, a cistern with a capacity of 600 cubic meters of water which supplied up to 400 families, sanctuary and bath house. On the middle terrace is the main settlement, consisting of a grid of parallel streets and residential blocks. On the lower terrace is the Doric temple dedicate to Apollo; the fountain house, and the Agora (market building). A really interesting site if you appreciate ancient ruins.

Very well signposted from the main road and easy to park (and free), even at busy times. At 4 Euros each it is 2 Euros less than many of the other main attractions but very much worth the cost. We went up the right side of the hill but found coming down the left hand side was better as there was a better perspective of the ruins, but this could have been the time of day and the way the shadows fell. The little leaflet given to you at the ticket office in the entrance was okay, and you got the chance to walk up the 'main street' to the top of the city. However, there was almost no signage around the main site which would have been handy. 4 out of 5 because it is definitely worth the entry fee but there could have been more information and it wasn't clear what was original and what had been reconstructed.
