"Teach me to dance... come on, boy!" And on this beach in 1964, Anthony Quinn taught Alan Bates the "Sirtaki." This final scene from "Zorba the Greek," filmed by German cinematographer Walter Lassally and awarded an Oscar, thus shows the "birth" and "birthplace" of the Sirtaki. Because the Sirtaki isn't an original Greek dance. It incorporates sequences from various Greek dances. Furthermore, Anthony Quinn had injured his ankle beforehand and was severely hampered in his dancing abilities. On the opposite hillside, the location where the collapsing wooden cable car was filmed is clearly visible. In 1979, I rode an old bicycle from Chania to this lagoon... and it was very, very empty. For those interested in culture... the film's plot is based on the novel "Zorba" by Nikos Kazantzakis, in which he created a monument to his friend.

Asfendos Pass Description: The Asfendos Pass lies slightly east of the Lefka Ori (White Mountains) and connects the summit of the Imbros Pass in the west with the village of Kallikratis in the east over a distance of 14.8 kilometers. Those starting on the south coast of Crete and then climbing the Asfendos Pass via the Imbros Pass can cover a total of 1100 meters of elevation gain in one go. The ascent from the east, however, is initially undulating and only begins with a longer climb after the village of Asfendos (municipality of Arkalokefali?). Since this pass, like the Imbros Pass, has no official name, a name is required, and here it is, in reference to the aforementioned village – ta-da! – Asfendos Pass. As of 2018, the road is in quite good condition. Apart from a little vegetation along the eastern approach, the landscape is extremely barren, which has its own unique charm. From the pass summit, there is a beautiful view of the Lefka Ori (White Mountains) massif. QD Editorial Note: From the pass, the road continues higher, a paved track leading to the 1220-meter summit of Akones.

Bourolos Pass 818 m Quäldich Pass Description: Anyone traveling from the Rethymnon area towards the Imbros or Kallikratis-Kapsodasos Passes must first conquer the Bourolos Pass, unless they choose a longer detour via Sellia along the south coast of Crete. The pass runs roughly west-east, with two ascents from the east. The southern ascent offers several options at the beginning. The eastern ascents are quite scenic, while the pass summit itself is barren and unspectacular.
