Knossos is the largest Bronze Age archaeological site on Crete and has been called Europe's oldest city. Settled as early as the Neolithic period, the name Knossos survives from ancient Greek references to the major city of Crete. Home to the Minoan / Mycenaean people of the 7,000 - 11,000 centuries BC, the Palace of Knossos is connected with Greek legends such as the myth of the Labyrinth, the Minotaur, and the story of Daidalos and Ikaros.
Located inland from Heraklion, Knossos can be reached by a regular bus service from Heraklion.

Easter (Paska or Pasxa) is the most important holiday in Greece, and in the Greek Orthodox Church.
Greek Orthodox Easter usually falls one to five weeks after the western (Protestant, Catholic) Easter, while approximately once every four years it falls on the same date.
It is an excellent time to be in Crete, both for the beautiful and moving religious ceremonies and for the days of feasting and celebrating which follow.

Food scene
One of the closest and best tavernas in the local area. Family run and traditionally Cretan, their food comes highly recommended by 'Travel Gourmet'. They also provide entertainment on a couple of nights during the high season when you can join in some Cretan traditional dancing.
