Greece: Heraklion on Crete

Today I got six postcards: one from Greece, one from Russia, one from Hong Kong, one from Japan, one from Germany and one from Portugal.

The card from Greece shows Heraklion on Crete. Crete is the largest island of Greece and one of the largest in the Mediterranean Sea. Crete is also one of Greece's 13 administrative regions. Crete was the centre of the Minoan civilisation. Heraklion is the capital of Crete and the fourth largest city of Greece.
