Kato Zakros is also the site of the fourth Minoan palace (alongside Knossos, Phaistos and Malia). It was stumbled upon by a farmer while ploughing his land and has remained relatively intact. Another cherished destination is the bay with its many taverns along the beach. The numerous wells and fountains in the palace point to the abundance of water in the premises of the palace.
With a spark of imagination, you might even get an idea of the way the different halls and courtyards of the palace were geographically configured. The aesthetic beauty of the palace is further underlined by a few cypresses. The silence and remoteness of the palace, however, disguises its significance beyond the immediate sphere of Kato Zakros; after all, its historical trajectory dates all the way back to trade links with Egypt 3,500 years ago.
Located 3 km from Kato Zakros to Zakros village direction, this hotel overlooks the sea.
The rooms are located behind the restaurant, quiet and independent.
The huge dining room is not for tourists, but to receive weddings. The last was composed of 1200 guests. This means that the food is authentic (I recommend the snails) with local products (Olive Oil, meat, etc).
Before eating, we decided to check-out the opening hours of the archaeological site for tomorrow. I was pleased – or perhaps surprised – to learn that it would be open.
The meal was superb. What a great place. After eating, we sat on the balcony of our rooms and read for a while. At least I tried to read. I had gorges on my mind. Tomorrow, I would walk up the Zakros gorge to Ano Zakros. I had walked this before, albeit in a downward direction. I was confident that this would be an easy stroll. I tempered my confidence with the realities of my experiences thus far. The last time I had walked this gorge had been 14 years previously and that had been in a downward direction.
Situé à 3 kms de Kato Zakros en direction de Zakros, cet hôtel domine la mer.
Les chambres se situent derrière le restaurant, au calme et indépendantes.
L’immense salle de restaurant n’est pas faite pour les touristes, mais pour recevoir les mariages. Le dernier était composé de 1200 convives. C’est dire si la cuisine est authentiques (je conseille les escargots) et l’accueil familial.
