Since 1914 beautiful Renaissance Rethymnon has been celebrating the
carnival with its many humoristic events. A carnival of another era
leaving behind its nostalgic aroma of romantic balls and the Rethymnians
through laughter and their comical antics paying their tribute to "His
Excellence, The King of the Carnival."
The Treasure Hunt, an old custom dating back to when the Carnival of
Rethymno began about a century ago, was the reason for the creation of
'teams' in 1990, which would give birth once again to this age-old
tradition.
In 1993, the Municipality of Rethymnon decided to help fund this
popular event and requested the teams to take on the challenging task of
creating and organising the Carnival of Rethymnon, which has become the
most popular and famous Carnival of Crete!!!!
(The
city is collaborating with several travel agencies of the municipality
in order to offer good, cheap travel packages throughout the tourist
season of the Carnival)
