The island of Crete
One of the most favorite resort places is the island of Crete. The place where the son of Zeus himself, King Minos, ruled, found his refuge the brilliant inventor Icarus, who built here a prison for the most terrible of the ancient monsters, the minotaur. Such is the mythological history of the island of Crete. She creates an aura of fantasy and heroism to the island, which attracts adventurers. But Crete is attractive not only for its connection with myths, it is beautiful in itself.
The central part of the island is mountains, dotted with gorges, which attract the eye with their relief. For tourists, they will not be as interesting as the coastal part of Crete. There is real life on the island here. Tourists from all over the world come here to relax, wanting to relax by the sea. Crete is loved by tourists because of its mild climate: moderately high temperature and humidity. Tourism is one of the main components of the island's economy, so tourists here get the best conditions for a great holiday. Arriving here, we get not only the sea and the sun, but also delicious wine with tropical fruits.
It is the combination of the gentle warmth of the sun, sea waves and juicy peaches, cherries, oranges, kiwi that attracts the attention of vacationers to this island.
But for those who want more than just a swim in the sea, Crete will offer the ruins of ancient temples. So you can plunge into history or be transported to the pages of your favorite myths from childhood.
And the last arguments in favor of Crete are the folk entertainment of local residents and, at first glance, simple but delicious traditional dishes.
