About this video
A morning walk of about an hour and a half through Heraklion with captions and local tips. It starts on Small Evans Street, passes through the old central market and along Justice Street to Freedom Square, then follows Dedalou Street to Lions Square and down to the Koules Fortress at the Venetian harbour. After Theotokopoulou Park it gets lost in the old town's backstreets, walks from Chandakos to Saint Minas Cathedral and loops back to the start, then finishes in the Kazantzaki park and the garden theatre.
