Venice Square in Heraklion (Plateia Venizelou) is one of the main squares in Heraklion. The museum still has a look. After all, this is the birthplace of Greek mythology. It is a small seaside square with a metal dolphin sign, and the commercial area is nearby. The museum here is worth seeing, because it is the birthplace of Greek mythology. Just opposite the lighthouse, Hania's famous attractions are in this area. There is a beach when you walk to the lighthouse. There are fewer people and it is suitable for serious appreciation.

It is very shocking here, there are three floors! The first floor is about the buildings, the unearthed cultural relics, the second floor is about civilization, money and development history, and the third floor is about the liberation period! Really good!

海布里岁月
Xiongshi Square is very lively, a bit like Beijing's Houhai, there are many bars and restaurants, of course, there are no less love lively Greeks who are proficient in string performances, dark skin, friendly smiles, lazy and unrestrained Greek songs, accompanied by this atmosphere, Sitting in a daze with fat pigeons by the fountain feels great. There are also several old domed churches in the style of Orthodox architecture nearby, which is also worth seeing.

Having a nice trip in Santorini.Santorini is an enchanting destination that captivates with its breathtaking views, iconic white-washed buildings, and crystal-clear waters. The charm of this Greek island lies not only in its picturesque landscapes but also in its rich history and vibrant culture. From exploring the archaeological wonders of Akrotiri to savoring delicious Mediterranean cuisine against the backdrop of a stunning sunset in Oia, Santorini offers an unforgettable experience.

Ferrari is actually a different pronunciation of the island's ancient name Syrah. Ferra is the capital of Santorini, a commercial center and transportation center, is the most prosperous and lively town on the island, and the most commercial place. The center of Ferra is mainly composed of five north-south roads, the most lively main street is actually only two, one is a cliff edge walkway, the other is parallel to it, very good to recognize the road. Around the central point Teotekoplu Square are the main banks, post offices and travel agencies and many souvenir shops

The Red Beach is a must-check attraction to reach Santorini, because whether it is a leisure self-service tour or a group tour, the bus must pass here in the day of driving out. It is generally taken on the mountain and will not go down to the beach.
