🌄 On a small peninsula, at the southernmost tip of Europe, Paleochora enjoys very hot summers but with pleasant sea breezes. It is a fairly quiet destination, even in high season and has retained a wonderful old-fashioned feel.

🌿 Askolymbri, the crunchy roots of the common golden thistle (Scolymus hispanicus) is one of the most exotic greens you can taste in Crete. For centuries, this wild plant complements the traditional cretan menu of bread, cheese, olives and olive oil.

🌵 Exotic landscape with prickly pears in Rethymno. Prickly pear is a cactus species that originates from Mexico and it was first cultivated in Crete by the Venetians. In Greek, people call them "French figs" (fragosyka) or "shoe figs" (papoutsosyka). Their fruit has significant nutritional value and tastes wonderful.
