The MAKASI GALLERY, with an overall length of 110m, is one of the many military galleries of the Venetian fortification which connected the inner city to the eastern Piazza Bassa of Martinengo bastion.

“Manos Hatzidakis Open-Air Garden Theatre”. One of the distinctive features of the bastion was the piazza bassa (lit. "Low square"), constructed in the bastion flank, at the point where the bastion reached the curtain wall, built at an intermediate level between the trench and the scarp. Today the piazze basse have been fully restored and converted into venues for various cultural events. Theatrical plays and concerts are held in the piazza bassa located at the Bastion of Jesus. 

“Nikos Kazantzakis Open-Air Garden Theatre” The trench and the surrounding earthworks were designed to keep the enemy as far from the enceinte as possible. The greater part of the original trench protecting the landward side of Candia survives to this day.  The trench has been turned over to the public and converted into parks and entertainment venues like the “Nikos Kazantzakis Open-Air Garden Theatre” in the part of the trench between the Bastion of Jesus and Martinengo Bastion.

The BEMBO FOUNTAIN – SEBIL was constructed between 1552 and 1554 by the Capitano Gianmatteo Bembo, who was the first one to build an aqueduct to supply Candia with spring water. The “charity” fountain (Sebil) was built in 1776 by Haci Ibrahim Agha. 

1866 Str. THE TRADITIONAL MARKET is situated along 1866 Str., which has been one of the most commercial streets since the Venetian and Ottoman era. At that time it was also the road which connected the city centre to the Ducal Palace and the Saint Mark’s Cathedral to the prominent temple of Christ the Saviour (San Salvatore). 

The BUILDING OF THE REGION OF CRETE - COURTHOUSE The present day building complex consisting of the building of the Region of Crete and the Courthouse arose from the Turkish barracks which replaced the Venetian barracks of Agios Georgios.
