Vrachasi

Vrachasi (Greek: Βραχάσι) is a small village within Lasithi, the most easterly peripheral unit on the island of Crete, Greece.

Vrachasi is a village of a few hundred people and typical of many around, but it has some interesting features and the traditional Cretan architecture is well preserved here. The main square of Vrahassi sits close to the road and has an excellent view into the valley.

Vrachasi's fiercely independent streak mirrors that of nearby Sissi and Milatos and can be seen by the many hand painted declarations of 'Demos Vrahassi' around the area.
