The Monastery of Arkadi is one of the most historic monasteries in Crete and is well worth a visit. It is recognized by Unesco as a "Monument of Freedom". You can visit the refectory, the powder magazine, the kitchens, the gardens and the museum. Note that the monastery is still a place of prayer and houses a religious community. It is also possible to attend a celebration (attention correct dress required). It is possible to walk from the monastery to Thronos (2h30 walk). By car, the road through Perivolia is picturesque.
