Explore Chania's Old Town
The narrow cobbled streets of Chania’s old town are a 20-minute drive away. Start at the huge Venetian harbour where colourful waterside buildings house rustic eateries, then stroll to the main square Eleftherios Venizelos. Along the way you’ll pass the tucked-away leather shops that sell stivania – knee-high boots made for traditional Cretan dancing. At the square, you can stop to sip raki at one of the charming little café-bars.
