Asklipio (Asklepieion) Village, Rhodes

Asklipio (Asklepieion) is a charming, rural village with a few lively tavernas. It’s built around the Byzantine-era Church of Dormition of Theotokos, which has a restored interior covered in gilded frescoes. The neighboring Folklore Museum is housed in a former olive press and displays antique farming equipment. Steps lead to the ruins of 15th-century, fortified Asklipio Castle, with views down to the coast from its rocky hilltop
