20의 에피로스가지 명소 & 주요 장소

강이 없어서 왼쪽에서 오른쪽으로 건널 수 있었고, 등산로는 때로는 거기에 있고 때로는 거기에 있습니다. 우리는 건널목을 인식하지 못했고, 한쪽에서 더 이상 진행할 수 없는 곳만 보았습니다... 강바닥에서 계속 쇼핑하는 것은 힘듭니다. 녹색 석호는 멋집니다.

In the worldview of pre-Christian Greece, the Acheron River was significant as a river of the dead: in mythology, Charon, the ferryman to the underworld, lived on its banks. At burial, a coin was placed on each of the deceased's eyes; this was Charon's payment for safely crossing the river.

Anyone who isn't afraid to climb the more than 400 steps from the Agios Dimitrios Monastery will reach the extraordinary monument of Zalango. It is both a memorial to the desperate resistance of the Greek people against Ottoman tyranny and a symbol of freedom and self-determination. In 1803, women and children threw themselves into the abyss from here, singing and dancing, in a hopeless escape from the troops of the Ottoman ruler Ali Pasha. https://www.in-griechenland.de/Festland_Epirus_Zalongo.html

Bridge is a bit further than pictured

The location of the bridge is about 350m further west than shown here.

A short, steep climb up the stairs rewards you with a fantastic view. The background to the monument, however, is a sad one.

It is very pleasant to walk through the cool Acheron in this beautiful gorge.

Nice
