The castle of Kritinia is built on 131 m hill above the village. The original settlement with the name Kritinia was founded by the few families who escaped from Crete when it was taken by the Turks.

To fall in love with Rhodes once and forever you must visit this absolutely charming place – the Seven Springs or in Greek Epta Piges. It is only 27 km from the Town of Rhodes but somehow you feel there far from loud civilization. Surrounded by tall pine trees the Seven Springs with their cool, transparent water attract not only people tired from the hot weather and unpredictable stock exchange market but also local ducks and peacocks. From magical Seven Springs stroll dawn to the beautiful man-made lake. An artist who was long asleep inside you will be inevitably waken up by the picturesque landscapes around. To complete the experience, you may swim in refreshing, crystalline waters of the lake. If you feel ready for the adventure instead of taking walking path to the lake you can go through a tunnel. 186 m long tunnel brings water from the Seven Springs to the lake. It was built in 1931 by the Italians. After that it will take about 1 hour to return to the starting point of this tour
