Chania is a city in Greece and the capital of the Chania regional unit.

You can stroll around the Old Town and discover beautiful Venetian mansions, fountains and churches, all well-preserved historical monuments.

If you are a hiker, you must go to the Samaria Gorge. It’s a five-hour hike to explore its 16 km length, but you can refresh yourself with a swim at the end, in Agia Roumeli.

The famous Balos beach is in Chania. You will be mesmerized by the blend of colors you see as you approach the beach from above, but also by the experience of wading into the still waters of the lagoon, surrounded by white sand with shimmering flecks of pink from crushed shells.
