Rethymno

Rethymno is a quaint city located at the base of the Psiloritis mountain range on the Greek island of Crete. Step back in time to the old town of Rethimno dotted with cobbled streets, Venetian-era townhouses, and the famous 17th-century Rimondi fountain. Visit the Venetian Harbour, an enchanting area with crystal clear water and small boats tied up alongside restaurants serving traditional Cretan cuisine. Explore the historical treasures of the city at the Archeological Museum. Items on display range from Neolithic, Roman, and Minon times including a collection of jewelry, coins, and Roman statues. Visit the Neratze Mosque found in the center of town dating back to the 1600s. The 27-meter high minaret is the highlight of the mosque that is used as a venue for musical concerts.
