Days out in Crete from your holiday home
Crete has lots to offer to lovers of culture and mountainous landscapes. The archaeological finds at Knossos are famous all over the world, and the palace of legendary king Minos, including many objects that are 5,000 years old, was found here. In Heraklion, the capital of Crete, there is an archaeological museum with various finds on display.
Walkers should absolutely go on a hike to explore the Samaria Gorge which is 16km long, and its steep rocky cliffs can reach a height of 500 metres!
