About


Just a few kilometers outside Heraklion lies Knossos, the ancient Minoan palace believed to be the legendary Labyrinth of King Minos. With over 4,000 years of history, its frescoes, throne room, and complex architecture offer a glimpse into Europe’s first advanced civilization. From tales of the Minotaur to real-life archaeological wonders, Knossos blends myth and reality in one unforgettable experience. The site has been partially restored to reflect the grandeur of the Bronze Age, while informative tours bring the past vividly to life. It’s a must-visit for history lovers, culture seekers, and curious minds of all ages.
