A small village set in the foothills of the White Mountains. Wonderful views of the conifer rich valley, and the mountains, make this a very beautiful spot. There is a tradtional kafenioor taverna in the centre of the village, and Vrisses and the National Highway are only 5 minutes away by car.
Nippos is part of the Chania prefecture and is part of the municipality of Kryonerida – along with Alikambos, Vatoudiaris, Vrisses, Vafes, Embrosneros, Maza, Chabatha and Fones. Most of them being villages with which, you may not be very familiar. Vrisses has all the amenities you could wish for - 4 minutes away - with some great tavernas, a public swimming pool, a lovely river flowing through, many shops, supermarkets, petrol station.
The municipal department of Tzitzifes consists of two neighborhoods built on two parallel hills that descend from the mountains to the plain and are separated by a ravine. In the bottom of the ravine is a storied fountain with trees, under which the leaders of the Cretan Revolution met several times in 1866, 1878 and 1895-97.
The houses are built with stone on the successive levels of the two hills, creating a beautiful traditional settlement. The view to the villages of Apokoronas plain is impressive. The name of the village has been taken from the jujube tree, which grows in the region.
The historical path of the village is lost through the centuries. But one thing is certain. The area was inhabited since ancient times and retained the name for over a thousand years. In fact the first written reference comes from the liberator of Crete, Nicephorus Phocas (960 A.D), who records the name of the village as Zizifea
