Crete Attractions

Iraklio - Crete's largest city and the main point of entry for tourists, Iraklio is often dismissed as a grim necessity that must be endured in order to get to somewhere more inviting. But scratch beneath its traffic-ridden, helter-skelter surface and you'll find a certain urban sophistication coupled with a lively cafe scene.

Palace of Knossos - This palace, in a beautiful site just southeast of Iraklio, is the most magnificent, intricate and evocative of Crete's Minoan sites. In order to give visitors an idea of what the palace looked like, its discoverer, Sir Arthur Evans, had parts of it reconstructed.

Hania - Hania is Hollywood Moussaka. Apart from being the largest city in Western Crete, it's swamped with beautiful Venetian and Turkish buildings and this, along with its harbourside setting, white onion-domed churches, and winding paved laneways make it ideal camera-bait. Any location scout or photographer searching for Greek appeal ends up, sooner or late, at Hania town square looking through a viewfinder. Add to its photogenic and esoteric appeal a number of colourful markets and a wonderful eating culture and you'll see why most visitors to Crete put the city on their itinerary.

Samaria Gorge - Many travellers spend a day trekking though the stupendous 18km (11mi) Samaria Gorge to get to Agia Roumeli on the southwest coast. At the Iron Gates, the gorge measures only 3.5m (11.5ft). Apart from its beauty, the gorge is teeming with wildlife and there is an incredible number of wildflowers during spring.

Further along the south coast, which is too precipitous to support large settlements, are the villages of Loutro and Hora Sfakion, linked by boat to Agia Roumeli.

The gorge is open from 6am to 3pm, beginning of May to mid-October, depending on the amount of water in the gorge. There are excursions to the gorge from every sizeable town and resort in Crete, with most excursion companies offering a long or short trek.
