Batis Hotel


The monastery of Arkadi is 22km southwest from Rethimnon and can be reached from a road south of the Rethimnon - Iraklion highway at 6km via Adele, Kirianna. The way is well signposted.
The Arkadi Monastery stands as a universal symbol of the struggle for independence. Because it was difficult to reach, Arkadi became an important centre of revolutionary activity during the Turkish occupation.
