Remarkable location
Cnossos
Cnossos faces the Minoan universe with its courtyards, stairs, shops, restored frescoes and passages that suggest a very organized palace. The visit becomes clearer when it is connected to the archaeological museum of Heraklion, where the original objects give more weight to the colours and shapes visible on the site.
Town or village
Knossos
Knossos gives shape to the Minoan world with courtyards, staircases, restored frescoes, shops and ceremonial halls on the hill. The visit takes on more meaning with the archaeological museum of Héraklion, where the original objects specify what the palace suggests on site.
Museu
archéologique Museum
Archaeological Museum Héraklion The halls are precious before or after the palaces, as they give colour, finesse and human scale to the often fragmentary remains. The rooms are the perfect place to visit, and they are the most important places to visit.
Town or village
Héraklion
Héraklion is an active Cretan capital, with Venetian ramparts, port, markets, noisy squares and leading museums. The city serves as a convenient starting point to Knossos, the vineyards of the hinterland and the northern beaches, while keeping a local life very present.
