M o u n t a i n   V i l l a g e   i n   C r e t e   Maroulas is a picturesque medieval village on a slope above the bay of  Rethymnon on the island of  Crete. Two watchtowers from the times of the Venetian occupation make the village's skyline in front of the Ida mountains. The beach is 5 kms away, and the city 10 kms.     In the village center there is a kafenion,  Marianna's herb shop, and the taverna of Papas Nikos who is the local priest. 4 kms below Maroulas there are the hotel suburbs of  Platanias and  Adelianos Campos. There are tavernas, supermarkets, car and motorbike rentals, bistros, discotheques, minigolf courts, exchange offices, and ATM machines.   The sandy beach spreads in both directions over a total distance of 15 kms.     Text & photos by Ingo H.
