🏡 Kokkino Chorio – charming village in the north of Crete (zip code 730 08)
Kokkino Chorio is a picturesque, traditional village in northwest Crete, in the Apokoronas region of the Chania prefecture. The village is located approximately 27 km east of Chania and about 5 km inland from Kalyves. The name "Kokkino Chorio" means "red village" and derives from the red earth mounds that characterize the village.
