Tour of Cave Drogarati
|
 |
The
cave of Drogarati was founded 300 years ago following a strong earthquake
that caused the today's entrance. Its height is 60m below the earth's
surface, temperature 18°C and moisture 90%.
It is dated more than 100 million years. Stalactites are the ones
which come down from the ceiling to the floor whilst stalagmites do
the opposite; they climb from floor to the ceiling. Stalactites are
formed by the movement of rainwater which starts at ground-level and
travels through the rocks above the cave, soaking up the mineral components
of the rocks as they go, iron, copper, salt, calcium and others. The
water then reaches the end of a stalactite as droplets and dropping
slowly from the tip, they help it to grow very slowly. The creation
of just one centimetre takes 100 years. Due to the excellent sound
effects that exist inside the cave (an area of about 900 m2) concerts
of classical and popular music take place comparable to ancient theatres.

Caveman,
who search the cave, found an extension. However the search was not
completed due to the large amount of mud. Hence there is no doult
that the cave may be linked to other caves.
Broken stalactites are due not only to the earthquakes but also to
the people who tried to destroy them without knowing its huge tourist
attraction.
The Cave's development took place by the then Community of the village
Chaliotata under the supervision of the Cavewoman Mrs Petrochelos.
Since 1963, the Cave is open to the tourists all the year round. Today
belongs to the Municipality of Sami.
The Cave of Drogarati is considered to be one of the best in Greece
and is unique for its large room that concerts are performed. |
