Near Varipetro, in the area of Agia Kyriaki, the old “metochi” of Agia Kyriaki has been restored. The monastery is a special and impressive attraction for hundreds of visitors every day, especially during the summer season, with a stunning view of Chania and the rich vegetation of the area. The lake of Agyia is a reference point for the region with important species of fauna and flora, but also a place where migratory birds and non-migratory birds find shelter.
