The Venetian fortress, known as the Fortezza, is perched on a hill overlooking the town and offers panoramic views of the surrounding area and the azure waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Exploring the fortress's ruins is a journey through time, revealing the town's strategic importance through the ages.
Rethymno's Venetian harbor is another highlight, with its charming fishing boats and waterfront restaurants serving fresh seafood and traditional Cretan dishes. The harbor is a perfect place to enjoy a leisurely meal or a refreshing drink while watching the world go by.
