Looking at the stars

The higher the altitude and the farther away from the city lights, the more the sky reveals its majesty. You can notice countless stars that are visible even to the naked eye. In recent years, residents and travelers have been looking for places to observe the sky and the most organized ones who want to capture the moment forever … bring their gear, too! Many places on Rhodes are suitable for star observation and astrophotography, but a group of astronomers discovered that the area by the castle of Monolithos is ideal. There is even a permanent base set up for a professional telescope.
