Acropolis of Rhodes

Okay kiddo, imagine there was a really big and special city long, long ago called Rhodes. In this city there was a special place on a really high hill called the Acropolis of Rhodes.

The Acropolis was like a castle or a fort that the people of Rhodes built to keep themselves safe from bad guys who might want to hurt them. It was important because it was really high up and had really strong walls that would keep the bad guys out.

Inside the Acropolis, there were lots of important buildings and statues that the people of Rhodes built to honor their gods and goddesses. There was a special temple where people would go to pray and make offerings to the gods.

The people of Rhodes were very brave and smart to build the Acropolis because it helped keep them safe for a long time. Even though it's not there anymore, people still talk about it and remember how special it was.
