Ágios Nikólaos
Agios Nikolaos is a small but interesting city on Crete. It's a nice area to spend half a day exploring, enjoying Greek food or visiting a bar or tavern in the evening. In the centre of the city, there is a lake with boats in beautiful colours. Hiking up the cliff behind the lake will reward you with a magnificent view. The streets of Agios Nikolaos are full of souvenir shops, but there are also some handycraft and art stores which offer more authentic products of Crete than the common souvenir shops. The city is situated in the middle eastern part of the island, so it would also be a good spot to spend a night in one of the countless hotels, as many interesting areas can be reached from here, for example Herklion, the Lasithi plateau or Vai Beach. #hotels #shopping #souvenirs #lake #Crete #art #history
