Rethymno - The jewel in the Cretan crown

Rethymno, a unique city, which combines the charm and history of the old town, yet at a very short distance from many beaches. It is one of the best-preserved medieval cities in Greece, with an abundance of Venetian elements. The Venetian fortification works, majestic mansions of Venetian architecture, arches and cobbled paths, which create a magical atmosphere, offer a reminiscence of the city’s glorious past, with its mix of architecture and history and diverse cultural influences.

The Fortress dominates the city and makes Rethymno very photogenic, its pedestrian streets below, strewn with charming old buildings. Venetian influences abound and the minarets and domed mosques remind us of the long-gone Turkish influence.

There is so much to see and do in and around the area, whether it is by venturing outside the town to visit dramatic gorges, monasteries, time-trodden villages with ancient churches, the south coast Libyan sea, spectacular mountains of Psiloritis and the Lefka Ori (White Mountains) or relaxing on the beautiful beaches, in the cafes and also enjoying wonderful Meditteranean meals in the plethora of restaurants. Moreover, Rethymno provides you with an advantageous pivotal point on the island, allowing you to range across the centre of Crete and have enough to discover for a very long time. Another convenient aspect of Rethymno is that it is nearly equidistant from both main airports, Chania and Heraklion, therefore offering more options, as far as travelling is concerned.
