style=\"text-align: justify\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">The city of Chania is the second largest in Crete with a population of approximately 60.000. It is also the prettiest town of Crete (although some will argue that Rethymnon deserves that award &#8211; it is a close call) and definitely a place that you must visit if you come to the West of Crete.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Chania has been inhabited since neolithic times and the current town is built upon many layers of past civilizations. The Venetians who occupied Crete from the 13th to the 17th century probably left the most visible marks in the old town but you will also note many signs of the more recent Turkish occupation. There are also a number of important Minoan excavations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify\"><span lang=\"EN-US\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">Cha<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">nia is the major town of\u00a0<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.visitgreece.gr\/en\/greek_islands\/crete\/prefecture_of_chania\" target=\"_blank\">the Prefecture of Chania<\/a>\u00a0which is the very western province of the island of Crete (followed by Rethymno, Heraklio and Lasithi at the very east). Chania&#8217;s beauty is mainly attributed to the fact that the city has maintained all of its characteristics from the time of the Venetian rule. From Chania (which by the way is also often spelled Hani\u00e1)\u00a0, you can easily explore the prefecture, as long as you don&#8217;t mind spending time in the car, \u00a0will say &#8218;yes&#8216; to hopping on a boat, and are adventurous enough to wear your sporty shoes; you will encounter a few of the best beaches in Greece (like Balos Beach and the pink Elafonisi beach), unique scenery from secluded villages and magnificent mountains and gorges.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p class=\"MsoNormal\" style=\"text-align: justify;line-height: normal;margin: 6.0pt 0cm 6.0pt 0cm\"><span lang=\"EN-US\">The modern city extends well beyond the old town but much of what visitors w<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">ill want to see is located within the Venetian fortification wall in the old town: the Venetian harbour and its many caf\u00e9s and restaurants, museums, churches, Minoan excavations, narrow alleys with picturesque houses, the famous lighthouse, the covered mar<\/span><span lang=\"EN-US\">ket and many shops, some of which offer very interesting products.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span lang=\"EN-US\">DREAMING OF A HOLIDAY TO CRETE?
