Vamos village, once a municipality in the Chania region of Crete, is a quaint settlement nestled atop a gentle hill, standing at an elevation of 190 meters above sea level.

Chania, Greece: Beauty and History on Crete’s North Coast
Chania, located on the northern tip of Crete, is the island’s second-largest city and boasts some of the most picturesque landscapes in the Mediterranean. Visitors to this city will discover a plethora of beaches, stunning hilltop vistas, and outdoor adventures, ensuring a fulfilling stay on the island.
Chania bears the memory of a significant World War Two battle, a historical event that continues to leave its mark on the city and its residents. The ferocious assault by the German army on Chania and its environs is a testament to the resilience of the city, a source of enduring pride for its inhabitants.
Outdoor Attractions
Chania boasts several popular outdoor gathering spots, drawing visitors to the area. One such spot is 1821 Square, centrally located and distinguished by a towering tree at its heart. Adjacent to the Church of St. Nicholas, this square is a favorite haunt for locals, who can be seen enjoying local beverages or unwinding in the park. Conveniently, many of the city’s hotels provide easy access to this bustling square.
Dikastiria Square is enveloped by neoclassical architecture, evoking bygone eras, yet it’s conveniently close to contemporary districts of the city. This well-preserved architectural ensemble is a delight for enthusiasts of historic buildings, offering a must-see glimpse into the past.
While steeped in history, this region also offers breathtaking natural beauty, exemplified by the stunning landscapes of Samaria Gorge, just a stone’s throw from Chania. At the gorge’s far end, visitors can behold captivating vistas of the sea, with the possibility of spotting the endangered species of goat that inhabits the White Mountains, if luck is on their side.
The Botanical Park of Crete welcomes visitors from early spring to late autumn, spanning over 20 hectares of indigenous flora as well as plants introduced from around the globe. It offers a serene retreat from hotel confines, allowing guests to venture beyond Chania city and immerse themselves in nature’s wonders.
