Come to the green Kaloniktis, only 10 minutes from the city of Rethymnon. According to the tradition, the village, and indirectly also the Municipality of Nikiforos Phokas where it belongs, owes their name to the following incident: when Nikiphoros Phokas expedited in Crete on March 961 AD in order to free it from the Arabs Saracens, he camped for one night on the above hill, which he had previously freed, after a battle. When the dawn came, someone asked him: “How did you spend your night?” And he said, “Good night!” So the village was named “Kaloniktis”, which means good night, and the hill and the location, where the Byzantine general and later Emperor was camping, was called “Nikiforos”.
