Kritsa is a picturesque village located at the foothills of Mount Kastellos, at an altitude of approximately 365 meters. Situated just a 15-minute drive from Agios Nikolaos, Kritsa is one of the oldest villages in Crete, rich in cultural and archaeological significance.
To the northeast of the village, about 3 kilometres away in the Koutarandos area, you can visit the ruins of the ancient city of Lato. Here, you’ll find the remains of the ancient market, including the Prytaneion, the platform, and the city’s Sanctuary.
Kritsa has largely preserved its traditional charm. In its quaint alleys, you can enjoy a coffee at one of the local cafés and shop for impressive handicrafts and authentic local products.
