RE: Saint Titus Church in Heraklion: A Byzantine origins’ 19th-century mosque, now a Greek Orthodox Church dedicated to Apostle Titus.
Wow, what a lovely place. We’ll be in Heraklion starting next week. Any other things you could recommend us to visit?
Oh, this is great news! Will you be staying in the city center?
Heraklion is a wonderful city, full of historical monuments but also with modern places and plenty of shops nearby. The good thing is that you can visit many places of interest by feet, as they are in walking distance.
You should visit the old Venetian Port and Fortress, and also the beautiful Venetian monuments in the center like the Loggia, the Saint Marc Basilica, the Morosini Fountain and the Cathedral of Saint Menas. If you enjoy museums, do not miss the renovated Archaeological Museum of Heraklion (best combined with Knossos Palace)
Please follow #aboutheraklion in instagram or twitter for more recommendations and please feel free to let me know with a direct message if you have any questions or need any help :)
Thanks a lot for the recommendations. We booked a place through Airbnb near the Bethlehem Gate so it’s not far from the centre.
Nice! I have just followed you both in steemit and also on twitter, instagram to follow your digital travels.
I wish you a fantastic time on our island!
