The Colossus of Rhodes

At the entrance of the old harbor of Rhodes was where stood the Colossus of Rhodes, one can see a statue 37 meters high (one of the 7 wonders of antiquity). It is thought that the ships passed under its legs. Currently, 2 stags are at the top of a column, and take the place of the old giant.

The Colossus at the guards the entrance ...

O Colosso não mais guarda a entrada...

Imagine conduzir sua embarcação em direção a um porto. Imagine que as águas são azuis, claras, belas, misteriosas. Imagine o Deus Grego do Sol, Hélio, o guiando. Imagine seu barco passando por ele... Não mais! Nunca mais! O Colosso de Rodes não guarda mais a entrada e a saída das embarcações, agora ele as olha do fundo do mesmo mar azul que ele admirou de pé por 55 anos.
Imagine driving your vessel toward a port. Imagine that the waters so blue, clear, beautiful, mysterious. Imagine the Greek god of the sun, helium, guiding him. Imagine your boat through it ... In more! Never! The Colossus of Rhodes on guard over the entrance and the exit of the vessels, now it looks the same from the bottom of the blue sea that he admired p for 55 years.
