The Crete region
Crete is not a large island being 250km long and just 12km across at its narrowest point. Many examples of the Minoan civilisation are to be found, and Knossos is well worth a visit. Also a visit to the Lasithi Plateau at 950m above sea level, the birthplace of Zeus, to see the legendary white-sailed wind pumps. Kritsa near Agios Nikolaos stands for all that is best and most typical of village life. Elounda and Spinalonga(the former leper colony) show off the beauty of the island, Mochos with the traditional Greek dancing in the square while you eat dinner of Lasithi Lamb,Arvi on the South coast where commercialisation is unknown, and so many more delightful places still to be uncovered.
