\n

Three kilometers outside Mandraki, on the way to Lindos, Rodini can be found,<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

a parkland with streams, ponds, little bridges and lush vegetation. In ancient<\/div>\n
times it was the location of the property of some woman named Rodine, to whom<\/div>\n
the place owes its name. It is also said that there was once a Rodine monastery<\/div>\n
in the area. No evidence of it, however, has been found. During the time of the<\/div>\n
Knights, in Rodini was located the summer house of the Grand Master. The parkland has been formed as a<\/div>\n
recreation area, featuring paths, benches, many drinking fountains, picnic<\/div>\n
areas, a small zoo and the opportunity to go on a boat ride on the large canal (part<\/div>\n
of a Roman aqueduct that was in use until the 19th century).<\/div>\n
\n

In Rodini a rhetoric school was founded by Aeschines when he left<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

Athens after his defeat in rhetoric by Demosthenes. Thus, ancient Rhodians acquired<\/div>\n
over time the reputation of good orators.<\/div>\n

\n

On a low hill above Rodini an enormous rock-carved mausoleum of the Hellenistic<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

period is located. It is known as Tymvos ton Ptolemaion (the Tomb of the<\/div>\n
Ptolemies). It is actually a shrine founded by the Rhodians in honor of Ptolemy<\/div>\n
I, who helped them when Demetrius besieged the island (305-304 BC).<\/div>\n
