The village of Fres is situated on the foot of the White Mountains in the Apokoronas Area, not far and a little west from the village of Vrisses. The nearest large town is Chania, which is at 30 kilometers distance. Fres is a quiet and sleepy village without much tourism. The village has a large village square with tavernas, kafenions and shops. In the middle is the imposing church of the village and a memorial with statues. Fres is famous for its Byzantine church of Madonna of the Two Rocks, which is set on two large rocks and surrounded by terraced gardens. It can be reached by following the signs from the main square leading to the upper village. From the church there is a path leading to the St. Antonius Cave, where you have panoramic views to Souda Bay and the Akrotiri peninsula. In the village of Fres there is another, larger Byzantine church, the Church of Agii Pandes.

From the other village square, just slightly higher, the route starts towards the Panagia on the Two Rocks. On this square you will find a cosy little church, a statue of a Krikri goat and various terraces of tavernas. The sign on the corner of the square indicates that you have to drive through the white gate to (or walk, of course, what you want, but it's still quite a walk because the church is just outside the edge of the village). You drive on a winding, narrow road and must take a left turn (down and then right again, it is marked with signs). You'll pass a church on a rock already on the right. At the end of the road is a parking lot and here you can climb up to the little light yellow Panagia church with its magnificent frescoes. The whole interrior of the church is painted, including the ceiling, and most of the frescoes are in good condition. They are mostly images of the wholy Virgin Mary and of saints.
