Άφιξη στα Χανιά της Κρήτης της Ολυμπιακής φλόγας στο δρόμο για το Παρίσι για την Ολυμπιάδα του 2024. The arrival in Chania, Crete, of the Olympic flame on its way to Paris for the 2024 Olympiad.

Just a picturesque ninety-minute bus ride from Chania is Paleochora ("Pally-OCH-ora"), a charming coastal town on the southwestern coast of Crete. The route takes a scenic drive through the island's rugged mountains and lush valleys, passing the breathtaking views of the central mountains. Arriving in Paleochora, explore the quaint streets of the town, discovering local shops, traditional taver...

The Venizelos Tombs are the burial sites of Eleftherios Venizelos, a prominent Greek statesman, and his son, Sophoklis. The tombs are located on a hill overlooking Chania, Crete - the birthplace of Eleftherios. The inscription, by the Greek poet Kostis Palamas, pays homage to his legacy and enduring influence on Greece. If his grave deserves ornaments place upon it a torch with the same inextin...

No trip to Crete is complete without at least one trip to the islands of Balos and Imeri Gramvousa, on the northwestern tip of the island. While there is a 22km dirt road leading from the Port of Kissamos to the top of the cliff (with a 300 , meter walk down... and back up again) the best and most relaxing way to visit the islands is by ferry. Gramvousa boasts the remains of a Venetian fort, le...

Fira in April 2024. If you time it to go n between cruise ship invasions, when up to 15,000 cruisers descend on the island, the streets are relatively uncrowded and the cable car doesn't have long lines of impatient tourists waiting up to two hours in the blazing sun for a seat.

This is the place you've all seen in those travel brochure sunset pictures, but did you know that, prior to 1977, Oia (pronounced "ee-ya"") had only 306 inhabitants. The Greek Government then stepped in and turned this sleepy fishing village into the overcrowded tourist attraction it is today. An estimated 2 million tourists visit the island annually, and most flock to Oia to capture the sunset...

Sitting in the heart of Santorini, at the foot of Mt Profitis Ilias, Pyrgos is the largest preserved village on Santorini and the island’s former capital. Surrounded by vineyards, its steep, medieval alleys are home to many wine bars and tavernas, galleries, and boutiques. It's also a hidden gem when it comes to sunset, far from the maddening crowds that flock to Oia for the daily ritual of wat...

Monday in Chania means one thing... Dinner and dance lessons at Mossa, in the western suburb of Daratsos.

A short (3 hour) tour of Palia Kameni (the old volcano) and Nea Kameni (the new volcano) in the caldera of Santorini Island. The nearly barren island of Nea Kameni is visited daily by dozens of tourist boats. Visitors climb a gravel path to reach the top of the 130-meter-high volcanic crater, where you can walk around the rim. Palea Kameni is a tiny islet of crumbling black, volcanic lava, with...

This market is located on Kritovoulidou, in Chania. The street is named for the pseudonym of the 15th Century Greek historian, scholar, and politician - Michael Critobulus.

On Thursdays, the local market relocates to the Chania suburb of Nea Chora, to the west of the city.

Every Saturday is Market Day on Minoos for the people of Chania, Crete.
