The old minaret adjacent to St Nikolaos church is a perfect reminder of the way the East met the West in the town I made my home, Chania, Crete, Greece.
The photographs I post all help to tell a part of a longer story that focuses on the town and its citizens, whether they are living there now, or have made their home in other parts of the world. As a newer resident, by writing about the town in this way, I am trying to put some order into the chaos that I seem to be confronted with.

A view of the sea across the road from the disused Turkish fountains. The benches in a previous post are to the right of the fort.
I remember this from our landau ride - must go and look again.

ReplyDeleteI would enjoy walking around this fort. I love old stone, and it's even more charming with lots of plants.
ReplyDeleteI've just posted my own photo of the bastion and nearby bench on Ackworth born http://ackworthborn.blogspot.com/2009/09/friday-bench-16-hania.html
