During the Byzantine and Venetian eras, Rethymno’s primary use was as a harbour and today architecture from these periods is ever-present. For those who prefer more modern history, a visit to Moni Arkadiou won’t disappoint, as it holds importance to the island’s more recent history.
Vventure into the Old Town, or Palia Poli as its known by the locals, and marvel in the exhibition of venetian arches & cobbled streets with Orthodox and Catholic churches scattered amongst local amenities. The Venetian Harbour is a short distance from here and nowadays is considered a hub for small cafes and tavernas and has a particularly appealing sight at dusk.
A trip into the mountains will give you a fantastic perspective of the island. From here you’ll be able to see Mount Ida, the birthing ground of Zeus. Exploring the highlands has its perks, as you are bound to discover many hidden gems. Taverna Karavostasi is considered to be one of the best restaurants in the region, with local wines and produce incorporated into daily menus, it’s a must.
