Symbol of Rethymnon City

Reviewed By jetalcott - Gold Coast, Australia

This formidable fortification is spectacular. First of all, it was (and is) in a great location, overlooking the sea. Walking through this area was like stepping back in time.

Relaxing beach, you can go into the sea easier near the Ammos bar. The walk to the beach is beautiful.

Rimondi Fountain

Reviewed By erin40

Nice fountain among shops and tavernas.I wouldn't go looking for it as normally when doing the old town you should come across it. An ancient hidden gem among all the modernity.

Ancient Lappa

Reviewed By ivas934 - Prague, Czech Republic

4.9.2020 Ancient Lappa’s cemetery lies north of the town and is reached via a signed 1.5km footpath from the main square. Hundreds of tombs have been cut into the rock cliffs here, especially around the Chapel of the Five Virgins. The path leads on to a plane tree that is said to be 2000 years old. We are looking for these monuments, I recommend them to everyone who is interested in these places. More youtube travel video PSIS-visit. Iva + Petr CZ Prague
