Mesara Plain
From Phantis
The Mesara Plain of Crete is situated in southern Heraklio prefecture, near the Gulf of Mesara.
It is the largest plain of Crete and is farmed all-year round thanks to greenhouses which dot the entire plain. In ancient times, it was the "breadbasket" of the island but nowadays is farmed with tomatoes, cucumbers and a variety of other produce.
