Impressions
Hey there! So, Stelios Gardens in Malia, Crete, is an absolute gem for history and archaeology buffs. Just a stone's throw away, you've got the Roman Archaeological Remains and the Malia Palace Archaeological Site, which is definitely a must-see for anyone intrigued by ancient civilizations. It's like stepping back in time as you wander through the ruins, imagining the stories they hold. The proximity to these historical sites makes it super convenient to soak up some culture and history without having to venture too far.
But, if you're more of a beach lover, you're still in luck. The beautiful Potamos Beach is also within reach, just 2.29 km away, offering the perfect spot to unwind and soak up the Mediterranean sun. And for those who are into religious landmarks, the nearby Agia Varvara and Agia Pelagia-Menopetra, at 1.34 km and 0.32 km respectively, provide a great opportunity to explore some of the local spiritual heritage. Plus, with the Bay of Malia so close, you can easily combine a chill day on the beach with a bit of sightseeing for a well-rounded vacation.
