A very interesting place to visit. Easy to walk round and lots to see and read. It wasn't too busy either. We went on a Wednesday

As we all know, Greek civilization is the origin of European civilization, and even influenced the progress and development of civilization around the world. But where did Greek civilization originate? That is Crete. Come to the Heraklion Archaeological Museum to find out.

Lion Square is located in the city center and is one of the main squares in Heraklion. Crete was once a colony of Venice, and the lion is the symbol of Venice. The Morosini Fountain in the center of the square was built in 1628 and supervised by the then governor Morosini.
