Chania Town, considered as one of the loveliest towns of Greece, has managed to keep its local and authentic colours, despite the growing numbers of visitors. Most popular is the beautiful Venetian castle and harbour with its waterfront tavernas, fine restaurants and unique accommodation in restored buildings. The Venetian and Turkish influence is quite apparent in Chania with narrow stone-paved alleys and back streets where you can find good shopping opportunities for Cretan handcrafts, such as rugs, blankets, wall hangings, and the beautiful embroideries that Crete is
The unique melting pot of history which forms this town is part of its enduring charm.
Scattered north and west from Chania, lie countless beautiful beaches along with many small villages and pretty coves.
