The necropolis dates primarily from Roman times and, apart from its geographical proximity and the repurposing of its infrastructure, has no connection to the Church of the Five Virgins. These virgins are said to have been martyred here during the Ottoman period; the five water outlets of the spring beneath the large plane tree commemorate them.

The "Old Tree" is one of many plane trees located near the ancient necropolis of Argiroupoli/Archea Lappa. Beneath the tree is a spring with five outlets, commemorating the five virgins (according to legend) killed here by the Ottomans, to whom the nearby rock chapel is also dedicated.

The name Agia Galini (meaning "Saint Galini") is associated with Saint Galini, who was martyred in Corinth in the 3rd century AD. According to Cretan mythology, Agia Galini was the place where Daedalus and his son Icarus escaped from the captivity of King Minos.

Agia Galini lies in southern Crete on the Libyan Sea. Nearby villages include Melambes, Kria Vrisi, and Agios Pavlos. Together with the village of Xirokambos, the port town forms a local community within the municipality of Agios Vasilios. East of Agia Galini, the Platis River flows into the Libyan Sea. Off the coast lie the two uninhabited Paximadia Islands (also known as the Zwieback Islands).

Who would have thought it! Such a beautiful island, and in this spot a dream bay with lots of palm trees 🌴 🌴

Worth seeing and a pleasant way to cool down on hot days.

This is drinking water for a lot of people, don't swim in it.
