"The birthplace of Zeus..." Prefecture of Lasithi Travelogue by gubbi1

Prefecture of Lasithi Travel Guide: 124 reviews and 394 photos

Laughing about the many caves being called cave of Zeus, we made our way to this cave on the Lasithi plateau. It was really worth the trip!
See here some photos I shot during our visit in the maternity room of Zeus...

The photo shows the magic opening of the cave.

From the entrance of the cave you will have an amazing view over the whole Lasithi plateau. This alone makes it worth to make the whole walk up.

Another pic of the entrance.

Inside the cave, isn't this great? Mind the stairs when walking inside...
