Livadia is a historic mountain settlement in the Rethymno prefecture, built on the slopes of Mount Psiloritis in an area of rugged terrain and wild natural beauty.

The village is one of the largest settlements in the Mylopotamos region and keeps the traditions of the Cretan countryside alive, with the local economy traditionally based on livestock farming.

Significant religious monuments adorn the residential fabric and the wider area, offering spiritual and historical interest. Notable are the churches of Saint George and Panagia "Kera", which serve as central points of reference for the local community. The village's architecture follows the traditional patterns of Cretan mountain settlements, with stone buildings harmonizing perfectly with the rocky environment.
