Have you ever visited the village of Ambellaki just outside Rethymnon? No? Well, true, there is not a lot there, just a quiet traditional village getting on with daily life. You may have seen signs to it when on the road from Rethymnon towards Spili and Plakias.
We stopped for coffee at a traditional Kafenion. One room of a house had been converted for the purpose
Greek coffee and Easter Biscuits
Then we wandered around the village
There were stunning views although it was a cloudy day so photographs don't do it justice.
Many old corners
Interesting patterns on the doors
Flowers growing out of house walls
A modern twist on the old arched doorway
Wood stacked for next winter
A bricked up doorway
Why not stop for a walk around next time you are passing by?
