The area has been inhabited since 3000 BC. and changed various names: Knossos, Kastro, Handax, Candia and of course Heraklion, that is, city dedicated to Hercules. It is the second most visited area of Greece. A generous and authentic city full of life, giving you plenty of unforgettable moments.. It is an ideal base to discover the island's internationally renowned attractions and beaches.
In Heraklion everything starts with the view of the seaside castle Rocca al Mare as the Venetians used to call it or Koules in Greek, and the impressive medieval walls. Saint Titus and other city churches, the Loggia Town Hall with its galleries, the Lions square with the Morosini fountain full of life and joy, the huge Freedom Square, the Dedalos shopping street and Chandakos street shops are just some of the attractions and sights of this sunny Mediterranean harbor!
At the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, one of the most important in Europe, you will enjoy a panorama of Minoan Crete. Mosaics and frescos of incredible beauty and style and other impressive findings
And of course your visit to the archaeological site of Knossos is a life experience that you should not miss. A sacred place, where one of Europe's most important cultures grew and evolved. It is said that the palace of Knossos was so magnificent and huge that it gave rise to the myth of the Labyrinth that Daedalus built for the Minotaur.

Useful tips:
- Cretan hospitality. There are no warmer and kind people than the Cretans. Do not refuse their treats or raki shots. It's like a ritual with dance, cheering and smiling that will mark your holiday even if you end up singing drunk!
- The kri - kri, adorable wild goats. Caution, if you park your vehicle under a shade tree you may find it partially damaged.
- In Crete, this culinary heaven, there are some of the strangest and most delicious dishes! Snails, meat pie, sea urchin salad, scrambled meat, rabbit on fire and much more. Fruits, vegetables are meat are all produced locally, hence so delicious.
