Aspropotamos (white river) is an enchanting valley, framed by rough rocky mountains, in which flows a stream active only until spring (season in which have been taken all the |
|
photographs of this page), ideal period to visit it and to enjoy its many spontaneous blooms and its mild temperature. |
|
The beautiful view or the climate are not the only reasons which make of Aspropotamos a deserving place to be discovered, but its houses that here, like in few other places of Crete, |
|
|
|
are of traditional architecture, nearly all perfectly restored and conserved, with great passion for the particular and a obvious care in the choice of the materials (only local wood and stones, often selected one by one); |
|
giving the chance to the tourist, in the space of an hour of easy walk, to make a true jump in the past on the traces of a peasant Cretan culture almost disappeared.
During this walk around Aspropotamos do not miss to visit |
|
|
|
the artistic laboratory and here you will find, in one of the most beautiful country houses of the valley, a young Italian-Greek couple that lives here all year round working to their original artistic creations. |
|
From Xerocambos you can reach Aspropotamos in about 50 minutes drive, on asphalted roads, following direction Ziros - Papagiannades - Lithines and then Makrigialos where you will easy find indications for the road that leads also to Pefki. |
