Knossos Palace 🇬🇷

#summerdestinations This summer, I visited the Palace of Knossos in Crete, and it was like stepping back into ancient history! Located just outside Heraklion, the entrance fee is €15 for adults, which grants you access to the legendary site believed to be Europe's oldest city. Wandering through the ruins, I was amazed by the vivid frescoes, the grand staircases, and the reconstructed throne room. The stories of King Minos and the mythical Minotaur came alive as I explored the labyrinthine corridors. The site is well-preserved and offers a fascinating glimpse into Minoan civilization. Nearby, you can visit the Heraklion Archaeological Museum, which houses many artifacts from Knossos, or relax at one of the charming cafes in Heraklion's old town. Knossos Palace is a must-visit for history buffs and anyone curious about ancient cultures! 🏛️🔱 #knossospalace #crete #ancienthistory #minoancivilization #summeringreece #explorecrete #archaeologicalsites #greekmythology #travelgreece #culturalheritage
