Agios Nikolaos. Crete
Agios Nikolaos. Crete
Wow, this place reeks of history. Seriously ancient crumbling ruins from many centuries ago. To be sure, it could use more restoration but we found it interesting nonetheless.
This is deep in Kritsa Gorge, one of the many utilized by resistance fighters on Crete in WWII. Though it's a bit rugged, we enjoyed our time in here immensely. We only spent about 2 hours all up and the weather came and got us at one stage. You can do a much longer hike and come out at a village on the other side.
