Various empires have made their impressions on the island over the years and today the place is a vibrant blend consisting of equal measures of history, culture, great food, lots of sun and heaps of opportunities for complete relaxation. Once the centre of Minoan culture, the island of Crete is today a haven for those with an interest in archaeology and classical history. On Crete, you can visit the Minoan palaces of Phaistos and Knossos, the ancient Roman city of Gortys, the Venetian castle at Rethymno and lots of other fantastic ruins that have their own mythological past. Explore the caves of Diktaion and Psychro, as well as the famous Gorge of Samaria. Travel back to the present day by returning to the main city of Heraklion and sample the local art at the Museum of Visual Arts. After a day of exploring, you can take a dip in the water or test your skills at various water sports that are available at most beaches and resorts along the Cretan coastline.
