Hier haben wir einige Vorschläge für Orte aufgelistet, die Sie besuchen können und vielleicht sollten, wenn Sie auf Kreta sind.
Knossos is a "must" when visiting Crete. In any case, if you are interested in Cretan history. Knossos is located at Heraklion, well two hours drive from Tavronitis and Villa Marella.
Festos was a city already 6000 years before Christ, located close to the southern coast, 55 km south of Heraklion. Palace visiting was built about 2,000 years before Christ, and the ruins are well worth a visit.
Kydonia was the third largest city in the Minoan culture of Crete. Situated in the center of Chania, this is a very easy target to visit. In fact, the entire center of Chania built atop Kydonia, but only small parts are understandably excavated.
Fortezza in Rethymnon is one of the largest, and one of the best preserved fortesses from the Venetian period. Situated in the center of Rethymnon. Recommended!
Frangokastello is a completely intact small fort located at Sfakia, on the south coast. The fort was built by the Venetians in the period 1371 to 1374. The fort has the classic square shape, with a tower at each corner. Fantastic beach just below.
