'Chaos' crater in Attica

In the National Park of Sounio at the southern part of Attica, lies an awe-inspiring landmark often ignored by visitors: a huge crater, more than 120 meters wide and 55 meters deep!

Some people claim that the creation of this crater was the product of a meteorite fall. However, geologists that studied the site proved that there used to be a cave that eventually had its roof collapse. The crater is known as ‘Chaos’ and it hosts numerous tunnels and caves.
