AROLITHOS is a small charming, picturesque village near Heraklion. It is situated 11 kilometers outside Heraklion, following the old way to Rethimnon. It is a village, which has ragged grandeur of wild mountains as a background. This, along with the wild carob trees, the lentisks, the gorse, the vineyards and olive groves of Crete constitute a picture of
AROLITHOS. It is a village with cobbled streets and with houses, which have tiled roofs and terrace. Its architecture is genuine Cretan whilst the materials are also genuine old.
AROLITHOS reminds our visitors how
Crete was several years ago.
