Have a look at Nikos Xylouris's house right on this square - Anogia is also famous for it's musical tradition. Venture from here to the awe-inspiring and enormous plateau, the Nida Plateau and visit the Ideon caves . The journey is truly scenic and takes you through sparkling rock and mountainscapes. At Zoniana , a nearby village, you can check out the new wax museum . Let appetite, the aromas of cooking and the feeling of the moment be your guide - you are unlikely to be disappointed.
Food is important, a big feature of life, everywhere in Greece and much so here in Crete.
In Anogia food is good. Again, let us know your favourites and tell us what you liked so we can pass the information on to other visitors. After our next visit we'll have that much more data to provide here. Special Comments To appreciate Anogia, give it some time, walk, stop for coffee or drink, eat and allow any kindness or generosity that might be offered you, to quench the thirst for offering hospitality that is a hallmark of Crete and has its source it often seems, in Anogia.
