On the edge of the new town in Rhodes, just past the Mandraki is the mosque of Murad Reis and the Turkish cemetery. The cemetery is described as a very charming area with its shady eucalyptus trees and run-down feel. The famous admiral, or some would say pirate, head of the ships in Sulyeman the Magnificent's navy is buried in this little corner of Rhodes. The mosque is no longer in use. It – and the cemetery – are locked and have fallen into disrepair. Most of the graves are marked with a turban. This one appears more in the shape of a thistle! I hope that one of my friends, who can read and translate Arabic better than I, would be kind enough (and sharp-eyed enough) as to render the text into English. Discovering a thistle-shaped turban monument in an abandoned Muslim graveyard on a Greek island? That's Peak Me, so it is! 🧐
