IRAKLION AND KNOSSOS by RACCOON1
Iraklion is the gateway to Crete and the gateway to Knossos the number one tourist attraction in Crete.Knossos is a must see but you should read some Bronze Age Minoan History before you go. The site as per the map in the picture is approximately 100 m by 100 m
Knossos was probably flattened when the Santorini volcano erupted. The reconstruction of the Palace is impressive but the Santorini Arch. Site of an equivalent Palace is more impressive .
