Chania, Crete

Chania, a Mediterranean city with a population of over 60.000 residents, is built over the ruins of the ancient city of Kydonia. The city of Chania, the "Venice of the East", was a crossroad between the East and the West for many centuries, and for this reason it was claimed by its enemies and suffered the presence of many conquerors. Now, Chania is the second largest city of Crete with a lovely old town and picturesque streets and plateaus as well as crystal clear waters and worldwide famous beaches. Chania is the right place to experience authentic Mediterranean cuisine and enjoy traditional Cretan hospitality.

Chania can be easily reached by air or sea. It is connected with many direct flights from many European cities as well as with many daily flights from the airports of Athens and Thessaloniki. There is also a frequent daily ferry boat service from the Peireaus port, Athens.
