Very peaceful place. Worth walking around for an hour an read all the signs for historical information.

A late Minoan necropolis with stunning tombs some big enough to house the living. The tombs are reminiscent of similar ones you might see in mainland Greece as by that time Greek culture was changing the ancient customs of the Minoans. The site is quite extensive and you need at least an hour to walk the many pathways and descent into the world of the dead. The place is especially beautiful in Spring when a multitude of colourful flowers carpet the site.
