Follow Greek Immigration to explore Greece: In August, vacationing on the island of Rhodes in Greece, the sun shines every day, and the blue of the sea and sky under the sunlight possesses an indescribable beauty, complemented by the white houses. It becomes clear why the Greek flag consists of blue and white colors.
This Rhodes is the fourth largest island in Greece and the easternmost one. Among the many myths in Greece, there are certainly legends belonging to Rhodes. Rhodos, the daughter of Poseidon, the god of the sea, was very beautiful. Poseidon governed Rhodes, and when he was away, his daughter took care of it. One year, Zeus wanted to distribute his kingdom among the gods, and during the allocation, the sun god Helios was absent; he was on his way, busy illuminating the earth with his rays, so Zeus forgot about him. When Helios returned, Zeus realized his mistake and prepared to redistribute, but Helios said it was unnecessary. During his journey, he had seen a beautiful woman named Rhodos, and he had fallen in love with her. If he could be granted the island where she lived, he would be satisfied. Helios got his wish, received the island, married the woman he loved, and named the island after her, "Rhodes."
It is said that Helios and Rhodos had seven sons, and among them, the eldest had three sons. These three sons established the three oldest cities on the island—Cameiros, Lindos, and Ialysos.
Lindos is a small town filled with romantic atmosphere, with white houses, deep alleys, and the deep blue sea and sky surrounding it, making it a picturesque place.
