Meskla

MESKLA (Village) MOUSSOURI
  Meskla is located southwest of Chania, 21km on the road Chania - Fournes - Omalos. Meskla is the site of an ancient city, as various finds and cyclopean wall remains show, but archaeologists do not agree on which city it was. The village is very pleasantly situated between green hills in the Keritis Valley, has a river going through it, and the Lefka Ori as a background. In Meskla there are also Byzantine churches.
