Chania City
Chania is the second-largest city in Crete, boasting a distinctively Venetian flavour that is unmatched in the Mediterranean. Unlike other Cretan cities that have been demolished in the name of modernization, Chania's Old Town and Venetian Harbour remain intact. This gives the city a transcendent charm that attracts tourists from all over the world. Chania has a lot to offer visitors. Take a stroll through the picturesque narrow alleyways, see the imposing lighthouse at the entrance to the little port, visit the archaeological museum, and explore the Kum Kapi pedestrian street. The shipyards and the great Arsenal, which is home to the Centre for Mediterranean Architecture, are also worth a visit. If you're interested in history, head to the hill of Kastelli and discover the old palace and the Minoan settlement.
The Ottoman city of Splantzia is another picturesque spot to explore. And don't miss out on the stunning cathedral of Chania. With so much to see and do, you'll need a comfortable place to stay. Fortunately, Chania has a great selection of hotels that cater to all budgets. From luxury resorts to boutique hotels and budget-friendly options, there's something for everyone.
