Let’s visit local ceramic factory and unfold the inside of this art right in front of your eyes The term ‘ceramic’ comes from the Greek word meaning ‘pottery’. Do you know that pottery has magic in it. Why? Because it comes from nature as a meeting of 3 elements: earth, water & fire. Earth and water are the raw materials, fire gives the objects colour and durability while human hearts and hands give them shape. Clay is the symbol of creativity, many myths describe it to be the material out of which the first men, plants and animals come to be. Every hand-made object is unique, like in life, no two are perfectly identical. Perfection is boring, there is no room to boredom in the world of Greek ceramics.

Mandraki—the more northerly of the city’s two natural harbours—was the Military Port of the Ancient city, and later the principal ship-building yard of the Mediaeval city. It is here that folk tradition holds that the Colossus of Rhodes - one the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World once stood.
