Meet the Minoan past …

Visit the second largest palace of the Minoan Civilization, the Palace of the mythical King Radamanthys. It is located on a low hill between Psiloritis and Asteroysia Mountain, a unique spot at the fertile Messara plain. Walk through the well preserved ruins and learn about the history, the trade routes, the Minoan facilities, art and culture. The place is barely restored, thus what we see is genuine Minoan...  Amongst the architectural discoveries, Phaistos is known for the precious excavation find, the “Phaistos disc” written in Linear A which remains undeciphered till today. It is kept in Heraclion Archaeological Museum and it is one of the global archaeological mysteries. A unique Bronze Age civilization. A great place that we have the chance to visit… Don’t forget your camera…
