The Breathtaking Melissani Cave in Greece

මෙලිසානි ගුහාව 

   මෙය පිහිටා තිබෙන්නේ ග්‍රීසියේ තියන කැලිෆොනියා කියන දුපතේ. මෙම ගුහාවේ ඇතුලත වටේට විවිධ ශාක වර්ග දැකිය හැකියි. මෙහි ගුහාව ඇතුලත විචිත්‍රවත් වර්ණ හා විලෙහි ඇති පැහැදිලි ජලය සන්චාරකයන්ගේ නෙත් සිත් පැහැරගනි. පහත ඇති චායරූප පෙල හා වීඩියෝව බලන්න.

 Melissani cave can be found on the east coast of the island of Kefalonia in Greece. It is located about 2 km from the town of Sami and 10 km from the town of Argostoli. The caves are surrounded by forests, while a mountain slope is located to the west. Below you will find a gallery of this magical place along with additional information on the cave’s history as well as the best time to visit and what you can expect to see.

The lake water is brackish, a mixture of sea water and sweet water. The cave is about 500m from the sea and the water level is a meter higher than sea level. The brackish water rises from a 30m deep cave system on one side of the cave and flows to the other end of the cave. This was discovered by dye tracing experiments in 1959.
