Sunny & bright summer days In Heraklion Crete.

Kalimera from the centre of Heraklion, Lions Square or Eleftheriou Venizelou Square, named after the Cretan statesman Eleftherios Venizelos.

It dates back to the Venetian era and is more commonly known as Lions Square, after the Venetian-era Morosini Fountain (popularly called "τα Λιοντάρια", "The Lions") in its midst, which features four lions supporting the main basin.

... a glorious day ahead.
