traditional windmill - Lasithi Plateau, Crete, Greece

Lasithi Plateau is a large scenic plain, and a municipality, located in the Lasithi regional unit in eastern Crete, Greece. The plateau lies at an average altitude of 840 m (2,760 ft), which makes it one of the few permanently inhabited areas of such altitude around the Mediterranean. Winters are often very harsh and snow on the plain and surrounding mountains can persist until mid-spring. Lasithi plateau is famous for its white-sailed windmills that have been used for decades to irrigate the land. Despite their vast number (some 10,000) in the past, most of them have been abandoned nowadays in favour of modern diesel and electrical pumps.
