As part of the project, a website and a mobile application for mobile devices were developed, which include the cultural and tourist digital guide of Chania in five languages (Greek, English, French, German, Russian). The website and the application provide a unique tour experience to the points of interest of Chania and give the ability of remote access to valuable audio-visual material that creates opportunities for dialogue during the tour. The project is co-financed by the European Union - European Regional Development Fund (ERDF) and by National Resources under the OP "Crete" 2014-2020.
