Chania is the second largest city in crete and arguably the most beautiful one. The old town of chania is definetely one of the most interesting places you can find in greece. It is very picturesque with alleys and old buildings. Minoans, Byzantines, Venetians, Ottomans, all left their mark in a part of the city and their heritage has been very well protected. The Jewish district of topanas, the castle of casteli, halepa and many more districts make for an excellent sight seeing experience.
There is also a beach in the city in the district of Koum kapi (meaning “the gate of sand”) but the trully magnificent beaches are located on the west of the city, beggining with sande “golden beach” and continuing with Agioi Apostoloi and kolimvari.
Oh, and don’t forget your camera
