With senior citizens (55 years old and over) representing around 25% of the European population, we feel that the contribution of senior citizens to the European tourism industry is significant and should be reinforced to face the challenge of seasonality, stimulating economic growth and jobs in our city. We acknowledge the importance of fostering transnational tourism activities by developing tourism off-season for seniors in Europe, a population group that includes individuals with both purchasing power and leisure time.

Rethymno is a sustainable smart city that supports innovative solutions for age-friendly environments. We offer insights on Greek wellness traditions and practices which have scientifically been proven to improve longevity from both a quantitative and qualitative perspective throughout the entire year. With Crete being a significant contributor to 'The Mediterranean Diet,' this wellness component is highlighted with hands-on cooking classes and olive oil and spice workshops by local culinary establishments alongside local cooks, bakers, and chefs. One of the great advantages of Cretan cuisine is its simplicity, the purity of its flavors. Wild greens and pure olive oil constitute perhaps the greatest capital of Cretan cuisine. For visitors today, the exploration of Cretan traditional products is an additional journey of discovery and significant culinary experience.

Rethymno's vibrant community comes alive with so many representations of our decidedly different culture happenings.   Whether it's a musical performance from a local musician or an eco-friendly event, an exhibition at the numerous museums or at the Fortezza castle, Rethymno region's artistic characters is committed to sharing their craft and creating a one-of-a-kind experience for locals and visitors alike.
