Crete Graffiti – Better Than An Art Museum!

Crete graffiti is common in Heraklion. In other words, simply take a walk on side streets and you will see some. Not to mention that they are on just about every corner. There is so much variety in the images that there is something for everyone. For this reason, walking the streets feels like visiting an art exhibit. Best part is it doesn’t cost you anything to see these masterpieces.  Here is a selection of some graffiti that I spotted while walking around Heraklion, Crete, Greece.

Let me know what you think of Crete graffiti.

Hours

Greece Street Art can be seen at any time of the day or night.  If you go at night, as in any city, please make sure that you stay in well lit areas. Be sure to wear good walking shoes, a sun hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, comfortable clothes and bring a camera. Bring lots of water, in bottles or a good hydration pack.

Directions

Crete Graffiti is common in Heraklion. In other words, simply take a walk on side streets and you will see some. I really enjoyed the graffiti that I saw while I was wandering in the southwestern part of the town. All of the graffitis here are well maintained and of good taste.  There is nothing offensive which makes the graffitis even nicer. It’s too bad we can’t say the same for graffiti in other parts of the world.
