Crete, the largest of the Greek islands, is framed by several small, uninhabited islands and surrounded by the deep blue Mediterranean. Lovely sand beaches and small coves entice one on a perfect bathing holiday. For those travellers interested in culture, Crete harbours many historic sites, such as monasteries and ancient Roman buildings. The pristine mountain villages also invite one to visit authentic Crete. Furthermore, the island has many discos and bars and is considered a favourite holiday destination, especially for young tourists. Crete - holiday with the gods! Crete - holiday with the gods!
Chania is one of the most beautiful and charming resorts on the island and is appropriately named the "Diamond of Crete". It is located in the Chania Prefecture in a fruitful plain in the north, with a 350 km long coastline. Many small springs flow through this area and the enchanting mountain chain demonstrates the diversity of nature. The second laragest city on Crete shines, above all, with its Venetian harbour with lighthouse and the White Mountains, which one can see from far away. The well-preserved Old Town, with its picturesque city centre and small, crooked alleys, invites one to stroll through. One can also, for example, bring the evening to an end in a cosy tavern on the harbour after diving with one of the diving schools. Diverse bars and pubs invite one to dance and party.
