Description
At the north part of the island at the Cape of Falakro, or 'Falakro' as the locals call it, a beautiful geographical phenomenon reveals the geographic history of Limnos and creates some superb imagery.
Millions of years ago, hot volcanic lava flooded out of the depths of the earth and froze to crystal as soon as it came in contact with the sea waters
Impressive natural sculptures arised as a result, which the locals also call by the impressive name ... “fragokefala”. The dozens of shades of yellow frozen lava and the spherical geological formations, next to the picturesque coves of the sea, are worth a visit.
