Griechenland, Greece - Insel Rhodos, Lindos,
Der hohe, 116 Meter steil aufragende Felsen von Lindos, auf dem sich später die Akropolis erhob, bot sich den Bewohnern aller historischen Perioden wegen der natürlichen Gegebenheiten dafür an, hier ein Heiligtum mit religiöser Bedeutsamkeit und einen Zufluchtsort zu errichten. Wie in anderen griechischen Poleis auch, dürfte die Akropolis von Lindos zunächst eine Festung gewesen sein, in deren Sicherheit man anschließend Heiligtümer für wichtige Stadtgottheiten errichtete.
In mykenischer Zeit soll der Felsen noch mit Olivenbäumen bewachsen gewesen sein und erste Gebäude aus Holz beherbergt haben. Der Legende nach soll Danaos das Heiligtum der Athene Lindia gegründet haben. Mitte des 6. Jahrhunderts v. Chr. soll Kleobulos das Heiligtum durch ein Gebäude aus Stein ersetzt haben. 392 v. Chr. hat ein Feuer den Tempel im Gipfelbereich schwer beschädigt oder zerstört, so dass er wieder errichtet werden musste. Im frühen 3. Jahrhundert v. Chr. wurden das rechtwinkeligen Gebäude verstärkt und die beiden Seitenwände neu errichtet.
The high, 116-metre cliff of Lindos, on which the acropolis later rose, was an ideal place for the inhabitants of all historical periods to build a sanctuary with religious significance and a place of refuge due to the natural conditions. As in other Greek poleis, the acropolis of Lindos was probably initially a fortress, in the safety of which sanctuaries for important city deities were subsequently erected.
In Mycenaean times, the rock is said to have been overgrown with olive trees and to have housed the first wooden buildings. Legend has it that Danaos founded the sanctuary of Athena Lindia. In the middle of the 6th century BC, Cleobulus is said to have replaced the sanctuary with a stone building. In 392 BC, a fire severely damaged or destroyed the temple in the summit area, so that it had to be rebuilt. In the early 3rd century BC, the rectangular building was reinforced and the two side walls were rebuilt.

Whilst enjoying the sights of the many rail replacement coaches serving Guildford one sunny Sunday in March 2020, the hourly First Berkshire Guildford-Heathrow Railair RA2 service passed me by as it would normally.
With a PVR of 3, coaches used on this particular day were:
20809 Volvo B9R / Plaxton Panther C49FL YN62GXS;
20811 Volvo B9R / Plaxton Panther C49FL YY63WBU;
23604 Scania K360EB4 / Irizar i6 C48F YT68GXD.
I finally got around to sampling Newbury & District's Flightline 730 service which took me from Frimley to Heathrow Terminal 5 in 45 minutes and for £6 return - bargain!! The 730 service and it's sister route 731 (Frimley to Basingstoke) were launched in August 2023 to provide a fast and convenient public transport route into Heathrow form North East Hampshire and North West Surrey.
Upon arriving at Terminal 5, the bus enthusiast is bombarded with buses, coaches and colourful minibuses left, right and centre! From Terminal 5 you can travel for free into the central area where even more stuff will keep your camera very busy.
On this particular visit (11/08/2025) we saw a Custom Denning bus, a fleet of Scania Fencers, some rather smart coaches, a few overall advert buses, some London stuff and much more!
