Sivas
Accommodations in Sivas
Sivas is the name of the old city from Hellenistic
times. The department of culture did declare this as cultural
protected
living area. In Sivas, in the year of 970 the holy Ioannis
the stranger (o Xenos) was born, who fight for Christianity
at
Crete. He founded many monasteries after the victory of Nikiforos
Fokas at the Arabs. People say that in former days the village
was called Cevahir, which means in Turkish: “Diamant”. Just
outside Siva there is an historical water spring near the road.
In Sivas are held some nice events from the 26th to the 29th
of Augustus, such as exhibitions, theatre, youth-events and
much more. At the 29th of Augustus the event is closed with
a big traditional party with Cretan music.
