Windmills of the Lasithi Plateau

Local name
LocationGreece

In the area, there were once around 10 000 stone windmills helping with irrigation. Nowadays, there are about 5000 standing and most of them are abandoned as the people living in the area switched to a different type of irrigation. However, the sight of so many windmills at one place still gives this place a unique feel.
