Rethymno is a nice and interesting city on Crete.

If you want to “go outside”, I mean outside Crete, then visit Santorini.
You can have a day trip or even longer, if you have time.

I used to thought, Santorini is the most beautiful Greek island.
But I see how it’s getting more and more crowded,
plus my Greek friend convinced me that other islands are more beautiful,
so now I even think that Crete is much more interesting than Santorini.
Well, we’re changing all the time. 😀

If you like buying souvenirs, you’ll find some nice items on Crete,
and even made in Crete. 😉

Of course, enjoy also water while being on Crete. 😉

Knossos is a large archaeological site on Crete.
One of the must-see places on the island!

The mysterious “Phaistos Disk” can be also seen in the Heraklion Archaeological Museum.
You’ll find there lots of ancient treasure.

Heraklion is a capital city of Crete.

Is there any Greek island with no cats? 😉

Crete is the largest Greek island.
