Chania, Greece

Why Walk Chania

Chania's old town wraps around one of the most photogenic harbors in the Mediterranean — a Venetian port enclosed by a seawall and watched over by a lighthouse and the domed Mosque of the Janissaries. Behind the harbor, a maze of lanes passes through distinct Venetian, Turkish, and Jewish quarters, each with their own architectural character. The White Mountains (Lefka Ori) rise dramatically behind the city, offering access to the Samaria Gorge.
