Itinerary
Windmills Of Lasithi Plateau
2 hoursAdmission Ticket FreeWindmills It is one of the most prominent highlights of Lasithi. Their shape is unusual: The base is made of stone and its construction looks like a stern of a large ship. The blades are made of white canvas and located in front of the windmill, thus creating an even greater similarity to the sea-going ship. The need to create the mills was caused by the need for the supply of water for irrigating the land on which numerous crops were grown. The mills raised to the surface the water which occurred at a depth of about 6 meters. Previously, in the territory of their plateau, there were about 40 thousand mills. To date, there are few of them, although the local citizens started to restore them.Kera Kardiotissa Monastery

According to legend, the prophets predicted to the father of Zeus that one of his children would overthrow him from the throne. In fear, Kronos began to eat them. Once, the frightened mother of Zeus gave a stone wrapped into the baby-liners to her husband, while she had run away to this cave. When Zeus grew up, he went to war against his father and fulfilled the prediction. The cave is located at an altitude of 980 meters above the sea level. It is rich in stalactites and stalagmites. Numerous archaeological findings confirm the important role of the cave at that time.Halavro
