Near Kamara village in Kisamos Province, there is one well hidden treasure of Cretan countryside. It is the cavernous chapel of Agia Paraskevi, which is what remains of a small nunnery that was destroyed during the Turkish Era. There is a very big schinus, which is one of the oldest in Crete (there is one more in Chochlakies Gorge by Sitia).
The Church of the Annunciation (Panagia) at Kassani, Pediada, is a small, single-nave and vaulted temple. It's interior bears frescoes of the Palaeologean School of the 14th century.

One of the many old churches that adorn the village of Kandanos is St Catherine celebrating on November 25. It is a very old church. For years he was semi-ruined and without ceiling, therefore the frescoes got severely damaged. In recent years the Mayor of Kandanos restored the temple and its courtyard. The floor of the church is about one meter below the road level and this has resulted in serious problems with floods. Externally there is no plaster.
Между деревнями Цения и Экзо Потами, в стороне от главной дороги, мы встречаем небольшую группу ветряных мельниц. Эта область носит название Катакалоу, и ветряные мельницы здесь относятся к типу Ксетрохарис, то есть мельница со стабильным направлением.
Near the villages Alagni, on a low hill, lies the deserted village of Rouma. We do not know when it was founded, but it is referred in the census of 1630. Rouma in the Cretan dialect means stream and is taken after the stream next to the village, where a spring with fresh water flows all year round.
Часовня Св. Степана в Драконе (провинция Киссамом) – маленькая сводчатая церковь, лежащая среди густой зелени. Храм датируется византийской эпохой (XIX веком) и имеет особо важные фрески, изображающие Св. Степана (XIV века).
In the center of the village Stamni dominates the impressive three-aisled and cross-shaped church of Christ the Savior, which is dedicated to the Transfiguration of Christ, St. Catherine and St. Paraskevi. The temple dates back from the 13th century and retains some traces of murals.
