    Ancient engineering at its best

    Incredible to see how this ancient culture managed to carve massive water tanks out of solid rock at the edge of the sea with nothing more than basic bronze tools. The site isn't well mapped and will...

    History

    All over Crete there are historical buildings of the old Minoans. It's worth a look, it's just a short walk from the hotel.

    Disappointing

    It's such a shame that they have not been preserved.In fact you could miss them if you had not got local information of the area.Its is certainly not marked up from the road side.
