The Lighthouse Of The Old Venetian Harbour In Chania
A general view of the lighthouse of the Old Venetian Harbour in Chania, Crete Island, Greece, on March 25, 2025. Chania's Venetian Harbour is carefully built in the 14th century for commercial purposes and for protection against pirate raids. Today, it is a point of reference for the city of Chania and is much-photographed. This city hub is filled with cafes, restaurants, tavernas serving local delicacies, bars, pastry stores, and art shops, as well as monuments referring to various historical periods. There is a balanced mix of Cretan, Ottoman, and Venetian elements, narrow alleys across the old town, and notable architecture. (Photo by Nikolas Kokovlis/NurPhoto)
