THE LADY OF THE LAKE KOURNAS CHANIA CRETE
They do say seeing is believing and nobody believed them!
After all... it's only a myth 'sin Kournas!
To keep the area around Lake Kournas Chania pure of sins today, it has been decided that no motorised transport be allowed to traverse the lake. The Lady of Kournas lake must not be contaminated. So now when you visit this beautiful area near Chania on Crete, you can see strange looking pedaloes crossing in every direction, looking for the leaping goldfish and the sleeping beauty who only comes out at midnight, very few people have actually reported seeing them, only to be later arrested for hallucinating.

The Kournas myth continues to hold the belief that ...
He sent torrential rains to flood the valley around Kournas to free the area of Kournas of this sinning.
The purity of the priests daughter saved her soul.
Her soul was released to take care of the wildlife in an around the shores of lake Kournas.
The Kournas myth continues to hold the belief that every night at midnight, she raises up from the waters of the only fresh water lake on Crete, with her long hair flowing over her body to feed the goldfish, which obviously must also be raising out of the water, perhaps the heat of the sun has something to do with all this?

Chania Kreta Crete
sinny Kournas, the village around
Lake Kournas Chania Crete is now pure of sins...
or is it!
Now, within the sinful village of Kournas, the prettiest dame of all was the daughter of the priest and the last remaining virgin in the region.
The sinfullness amongst the families was taking over their daily lives, until one day God decided enough was enough.
