Leaving the city centre to the east, we find, direction right, Theotocopoulou Street, which we keep following.

Going up the road leading to the hill, 7 kilometres from the diversion sign to Mikra Anoyia, we reach the newly preserved Monastery of Agia Irini.

Following the same road we reach the Venetian buildings and the fountain in Roussospiti after two kilometres.

From the same point we continue to reach Chromonastiri, where one can visit the churches of Panagia Kera and Agios Eftihios, as well as the Venetian Villa Clodio. Leaving Chromontastiri, 1,5 kilometers south we arrive at the deserted Myloi village. To visit Myloi one has to cross the path and the gorge in which the village was built. The village was named after the many water mills having existed; when visited one can enjoy the rich plantation and its picturesque view.

Getting on the road again to Rethymno, we meet to the left side the church of Panagia Halevi and the ruins of the monastery. The same road will lead us to Missiria area. Rethymno is 3 kilo meters from Missiria.
