Gorge of the Dead / The journey to Kato Zakros. Crete, Greece

The beautiful Gorge of Kato Zakros (or the gorge of the Dead) starts in a short distance from Ano Zakros, nearly 100km southeast of Agios Nikolaos and ends at Kato Zakros beach. The beauty of the landscape, the historical importance of the gorge and its accessibility, attract many visitors every year.
It is an exceptionally beautiful gorge, with high walls with big caves on them. In those caves, tombs of the Minoan era, have been found, which contained findings of great archaeological value. Because of these tombs, the gorge is also called "Gorge of the Dead" and the caves "Caves of the Dead".
