Seven
Wonders of the World
The town was home to one of the Original Seven Wonders of the World: The Colossus of Rhodes.

This skyscraping bronze statue was erected around 280 BC and
was toppled a half century later by an earthquake.

Nothing remains of it
for the modern traveler to Greece.
Read my special web page on this ancient Seven Wonder.
