Why visit Lasithi Plateau?

Nikolaou, south with the Municipality of Viannos, west with the Municipality of Kastelli, and north with the Municipality of Hersonissos. The Kapodistrian Municipality of Lassithi Plateau came from the unification of the old communities of the former province of Lassithi, local councils have joined, and its seat is Tzermiadon. Earlier, in the year 1879, when the administrative deletion of Crete provided for the creation of Municipalities, in the then province of Lassithi two Municipalities were established: the Municipality of Tzermiades and the Municipality of Psychrou, and this shape was maintained in the Cretan State.
