Πλατεία Ψίνθου

Πλατεία Ψίνθου

Psinthos is a charming inland village known for its large central square shaded by massive plane trees. It is a quintessential Greek village experience where locals gather at 'kafeneios' to play backgammon and drink coffee. The square is surrounded by several traditional tavernas that are famous across the island for their grilled meats and local appetizers. Nearby, the Fasouli Spring offers a small natural park area with running water and lush greenery. The atmosphere is relaxed and cool thanks to the elevation and the shade of the trees. It is a perfect spot for foodies and those looking to experience the 'slow life' of Rhodes. On weekends, it is a popular spot for local families to enjoy a long lunch.

Visitor tips

Try the local 'pittaroudia' (chickpea fritters) at one of the village tavernas.
