Beautiful underground complex of caves with dramatic formations of stalactites and stalagmites, formed millions of years ago, when the sea, retreated a few meters away. It is the excitement of not knowing what can be hiding in the darkness beyond the illuminated 1.5k route, and the realization of the sheer size of this underground miracle of nature: a series of vast caverns stretching 15k into the rock, with 2,800 waterways – and this is only what we know of so far.

How to say ' Hello'
When you enter or exit a place (shop, restaurant etc) the most common phrase to use as a hello is 'Yia sas' [ja sas]. With this phrase you are pretty much covered as far as greeting is concerned!
Phrases utiles
How to say 'Thank you'
Thank you in Greek is 'Efharisto'. And they will answer back either with 'Parakalo' (which means please) or 'Tipota' (which means nothing and is a way of saying you don't owe me anything, no worries!)
