KRITSA : strada principale : negozietti con prodotti locali. Chiese da visitare : Panagìa Kerà, una chiesa bizantina del XIII secolo, nota per i suoi affreschi (sulla strada per Agios Nikolaos), Ekklisia Panagia Odigitria (in centro, prima della banca) Ekklisia Agios Giorgios di fronte a casa. Le 40 piccole chiese, putroppo spesso chiuse.

Kritsa è un vilaggio caratteristico dell'isola, situata sotto la collina di Kastellos, molto vicino alla città di Agios Nikolaos. Ciò che rende speciale Kritsa è la conservazione dello stile di vita tradizionale e che ogni anno attrae dozzine di visitatori. Le pittoresche stradine, i cortili fioriti, i negozi di tessuti, le tradizionali caffetterie, le collezioni folcloristiche e i templi bizantini possono facilmente conferire all'insediamento la caratterizzazione di un museo storico e folcloristico aperto su Creta. Oltre a passeggiare per le stradine, vale la pena fare un'escursione nella gola di Kritsa, visitare i musei del folclore e ammirare gli affreschi dei suoi monumenti bizantini, tra i quali, il più importante, è Panagia Kera. Da notare che alcune scene del film "Christ Recrucified" una serie TV basata sull'omonimo romanzo di Nikos Kazantzakis, sono state girate a Kritsa.

Kritsa is located 11 km inland from the large town of Agios Nikolaos in the East of Crete. Kritsa is a traditional village with old houses and narrow streets on the Lassithi (Dikti) mountains. As you approach you can see Kritsa nestling in a bowl at the foot of the Dikti Mountains, under a red overhang of rock known as Kastellos. From many vantage points throughout the village there are far reaching views across the olive groves that produce delicious award-winning oil, down to the coast and up to the rounded Thripti Mountains that spectacularly fill the eastern view.
