The former capital of the island and the second largest city of Crete, it attracts tourists from all over the world with its unique combination of Venetian, Ottoman, Byzantine and Greek cultures.
• The old town is more like an open-air museum: the splendour of medieval architecture, the beauty of Venetian-style churches, Ottoman mosques and ancient fountains.
