    One of the most amazing geological phenomena in the world takes place on the island of Kefalonia. The hydrological karst systems connect the sinkholes of Argostoli with the brackish spring of Karavomilos.
    Seawater, flowing into the sinkholes at a speed of 3 m/s, was used in the past to turn the water wheel and provide electricity to run a power plant and an ice factory.
