From Astir Palace, venture to Cape Sounion and explore the Temple of Poseidon. Archaeological records of the site date back to the 7th century BC when a first attempt to construct a temple stalled. Construction began anew in the 5th century BC, when the current temple was built over the unfinished remains of the first.

Venture into the middle ages by visiting the 14th-century Palace of the Grand Master of the Knights of Rhodes. Established in Rhodes during the second crusades, it was built over the site of a Byzantine fortress and stood as a palace until the Ottoman occupation. Follow the Knights' Road up to the palace (now a museum), and investigate the architecture and artifacts housed inside. Lavish reminders of the palace's golden history await!
