This island is the cruise tour’s last destination and the home of the Minoan Civilization.  The Minoan Palace of Knossos and Heraklion Archaeological Museum is not to miss in this town.  Unfortunately, both places only opened for four hours on the day I arrived, so I had to skip one of them.  I chose to see the Heraklion Archaeological Museum and skipped the Palace.

I took a taxi to the city’s vicinity and walked to the center.
