Cave of Antiparos is one of the most beautiful and most important of the world. This is because, besides a magical natural attraction, it is closely connected with the history of the place and provokes great archaeological interest due to the findings of the stone age discovered inside it. The engraved inscriptions that “decorate” it is an inexhaustible source of stories, legends and information about its famous – and non – visitors – as a book of impressions, whose first page was written hundreds of years before the birth of Christ.
“Katafygi”, as the locals call it, is decorated with stalactites and stalagmites, which change form, depending on the inspiration of the visitor. It is located 171 meters above sea level, it is boring and its temperature in winter varies between 15 degrees Celsius. It has an area of about 5,600 square meters. Its maximum depth reaches about 85 meters and the downhill can be easily and safely done through a 411-foot cement staircase. Exceptional visibility allows observation of the detail of the artist’s nature and the search for the human presence from the time of the Parisian poet Archilochus (728 – 650 BC) until the twentieth century.
