Crete | Folklore Museum Of Chania
Crete | Folklore Museum Of Chania. The Chania Folklore Museum contains an exhaustive collection of how Cretans lived before globalization.
From cooking utensils to embroideries and farming tools, from folk musical instruments to clothes, it's all there.
The greater part of the collection consists of both the agricultural profession consisting of ploughing, sowing, harvesting, threshing and treading grapes, and the traditional household life, such as preparations for the daily meal, weaving on the loom, or the processing of raw materials for embroidery and weaving.
The museum is not hard to get to, being to the west of the Old Harbour next to the remains of the Venetian castle.
That's within easy walking distance from the main cafes and shops.

Crete | Chania Historical Archives Museum
Crete | Chania Historical Archives Museum. Crete is not only known for its ancient and mediaeval history. There's a good deal of more modern history on view, as well, and the Historical Archives Museum in Chania is one place where some of it can be viewed.
Crete was joined to Greece only about a hundred years ago, in 1913. But since the early 19th century there had been constant agitation for independence from Ottoman Turkish rule.
There's a lot of documentation from that period, especially in the first decade of the 20th century when this agitation came to a head.
The museum is housed in an unobtrusive but elegant neoclassical mansion. Admittedly, it's scholars and historians who will be most interested in the contents. But the ordinary tourist, too, can get a lot out of it by simply imagining you're back in a gentler age -- before tourism.
The Museum is open weekdays from 9 am to 1 pm and is closed on weekends.

Crete | Museum of Typography in Chania
Crete | Museum of Typography in Chania. Greek museums are not all about ancient statues and coins. There are plenty of museums dealing with more recent attainments as well, and one of these is the Typography Museum in the town of Chania.
The exhibit contains typesetting benches where the typesetter would compose the text of a newspaper, using cast iron type, dating from Gutenberg time in the 15th century to the beginning of the 20th century. You can also see the machinery used for printing techniques such as lithography, offset lithography, wood engraving, copper engraving and silk screen printing, that are all presented in detail in specially designed showcases.
This museum is housed in an airy hall in a small industrial zone outside the city limits, and so may be a little hard to track down. Taxi drivers could be able to help you there, if not your hotel concierge.

METAXA & THE CLUMSIES - EXPLORE GREECE
[WERBUNG] In 2018 METAXA & The Clumsies Athens, the 7th best bar in the world, embarked on a journey to EXPLORE GREECE. In a series of unique experiences across the Cyclades, the collaboration paid tribute to Greece in an unforgettable sailing exploration of Mykonos, Paros and Antiparos.
This year, the adventure continues. METAXA & The Clumsies sail to Crete for a total seduction of the senses.
EXPLORING CRETE a feast for the senses
Step foot on Crete and embark on a sensorial journey through wild gorges, breathtaking mountain backdrops and white-sand beaches.
Marrying influences from the East and West, the island is representative of a vibrant cross-cultural mix left behind by the colonizing Venetians and Byzantines.
It was here that the Mythical tale of Theseus and the Minotaur played out. Wind through the narrow alleyways of Chania and Rethymno and step into your very own Cretan maze dotted with crumbling castles, a symbol of the island’s rich history, second only to its gastronomy.
Whether its rosemary spiked snails, a simple Dakos salad or a sampling of local Graviera cheese, Crete’s diversity of dishes has led to a thriving food scene. That’s partly down to the produce on the island being perfected since the time of the ancients. Its olive oil is one of the purest in the world, while its wine tradition dates back over 4000 years.
“Cretan hospitality” is as abundant and generous as its expansive landscape. While the island’s traditions are distinct, rich in folk music and age-old dances, the locals are always happy to share these, eager to transpose some of the magic of the island to its visitors.
Hmmm! Schmackofatzo
