Heraklio
Heraklio is a land of exquisite beauty and unique contrasts. Alternating between barren hills and lush valleys, the landscape of this region offers numerous surprises to its visitors including the ancient site of Knossos Palace. The Youchtas conservation park has the largest colony of predatory birds in Europe and over 2100 species of plants, 300 of which are indigenous to the island. In and around Heraklio, tradition is still evident in the many facets of its culture and especially in its popular folk art and local events. Coupled with its rich culture, warm hospitality is a prevalent trait.
Today, Heraklio with its modern tourist industry is one of the top choices for business travellers who can enjoy, apart from the excellent conference and meeting facilities, a number of activities including golf, mountaineering, hiking, water sports and hand gliding.
