Councillor’s residence, possible mausoleum and Mosque of the Sultan Ibrahim Han.
The square openings in the walls were presumably emplacements for cannon.

The remains of a series of food storerooms and water cisterns.
Ottoman era. I suspect these are tombstones.
The old Venetian harbour and lighthouse.

There are a couple of situations where I need a theme image for the post. The cat was one I contemplated. The other two were the next image, No. 27, and the first one of Chania Harbour.
