The village of Gazi near Herakion on the island of Crete

Built on the right bank of the river Galanos, the town of Gazi is just 6 km away from the city of Heraklion, close to the electricity central annex energy depot of the Cretan capital. It is the western suburb and shopping mall for the people of Heraklion. No interesting sights to my knowledge. There are a lot of newly build houses for sale in this area which is developing at high speed. Gazi is mostly modern with a wide variety for shops and supermarkets.
