the old port of Chania ,Crete
Chania in the Venetian era
After the Fourth Crusade (1204) and the fall of Byzantium in the Hellenic area, Crete was given to Bonifacio, Marquess of Montferrat. He in turn chose to sell it to the Venetians for 100 silver marks. In 1252 the Venetians managed to subdue the Cretans but in 1263, their rivals of Genoa, with local support, seized the city under the leadership of Enrico Pescatore, count of Malta, and held it until 1285, when the Venetians returned. Chania was chosen as the seat of the Rector (Administrator General) of the region and flourished as a significant commercial centre of a fertile agricultural region.
The Venetian rule was initially strict and oppressive but slowly the relations between the two parts improved. Contact with Venice led to close intertwining of Cretan and Venetian cultures, without, however, the Cretans losing their Greek Orthodox nature. The city's name became La Canea and its fortifications were strengthened, giving Chania the form that it still has today. On the other hand, after the fall of Constantinople in 1453, many priests, monks and artists took refuge in Crete and reinforced the Byzantine religion and culture on the island. The city of Chania during the period that followed was a blend of Byzantine, Venetian, and Classical Greek cultural elements. Many of the important buildings of the town were built during this era and the intellectual activities (written word, music, education) were also promoted.

CHANIA, CRETE. WALKING BY NIGHT
Walking by night in the wonderful old town of Chania (Xania), in the west part of Crete (Greece). Venetian light, old port, Hasan Pasha Mosque and some little street with restaurant and shops.
A four minute virtual tour to know this lovely greek town.
A passeggio di sera per le antiche vie di Chania, nella parte occidentale di Creta, in Grecia. La città è sorprendente e incanta per la sua vivibilità. Il faro veneziano, l'antico porto, la moschea dei Gianizzeri ora centro culturale. Una parte ricorda Venezia (che qui ha dominato), l'altra la vicina Turchia.

The Old Venetian Harbor of Chania, Crete + Delicious Greek Cretan Food. Family Travel Vlog
The Old Venetian Harbor in Chania (also known as Hania or Χανιά in Greek), Crete is amazing! We had a lot of family fun taking in the sights of the Old Venetian Harbor in the port of Chania and of the Chania lighthouse (GR: Φάρος), which is one of the oldest in the world!
We also had great family fun as we visited the Maritime Museum of Crete, Chania Town, which is a wonder for all those interested by anything associated with seafaring or, more generally, WW2 (less family oriented, but still important!).
Chania is a great city for travelers and traveling families; with its unique old alleys, influences spanning the many decades it was under Greek, Ottoman Turkish and Venetian Italian control, as well as its incredible Mediterranean cuisine, it is sure to leave you with a soft spot in your heart. Oh, and by the way, did you know that Crete is the birthplace of the Mediterranean diet? So what better place to eat some of the world's healthiest and tastiest food, than in Crete's most charming town!
Make no mistake about it - if you come here, you will want to come back! The majestic feeling you get here, whether it's due to the freshness of the air created by the breeze that cuts the intense summer heat just at the perfect time, the laid back island vibe of the people, the time-machine feels that spring back to life the past of the Old Town of Chania, or maybe because looking past the Lighthouse of Chania into the great midst of the Agean sea seems to magnify that feeling of discovery and exploration, that quiver that embodies any traveler's first taste of the surreality of the Greek island experience, can't help but make you feel like you are at the crossroads of centuries of cultural intermingling. It is truly a traveler's paradise.
As I am contemplating our future trips to uncover new unknowns, I know that one day I will come back to Chania. I can't wait to show you more from this very charming little town.

In our videos, you will see me and Robyn tackle every obstacle that traveling with kids throws at us. We do traveling almost exactly the same way we did before having kids, it just takes a little bit more planning these days. The result, however, is simply more fun! It's also very rewarding to be able to show the kids new cultures and live new experiences with them at the same time. Our mission is to inspire other Millennials to travel with kids.
Our 7-year-old daughter, Ava, also has her own YouTube channel. Feel free to check it out right here:
