Galatas, a Small Village with Hospitable Residents

Cities & Villages

ABOUT

The small rural settlement of Galatas is located on a low hill.
Here, you can wander through its narrow lanes with stone-built houses, many of which show clear signs of abandonment.
The residents are particularly hospitable and kind.

You can visit the small chapel of Saint John, perched on a hilltop and surrounded by trees.
The village’s Minoan palace is not yet open to visitors.
