Olympos
SHOPPING | CONTACT | NEWS | SUBSCRIBE ENG ITA ESP ENG ITA ESP Olympos in Karpathos. How to arrive, what to do and see. Route Olympos Leave all hope or you who… want to go to Olympos !! If you were to come across some forum about Karpathos, because, maybe, it is your intention to stay on this WONDERFUL island, you will find many tips and tips on road connections.There are those who claim that only a 4X4 should be used, who strongly advise against the use of scooters and scooters (someone even came to claim that they are literally swept away by the power of the Meltemi !!!!!!); among the many forums, you will find plenty of them, about the road to reach the north of the island, and in particular, the beautiful village of Olympos. An impractical, impossible, impervious road, and … whoever has it, put it. NOTHING MORE FALSE. As for the means to move around the island, you can consult the KANOA SPECIAL GUIDE by clicking here. About the road for Olympos, do not be fooled: it is totally passable, except for a very good dirt road and rough (about one km), for which you just need a little ‘of caution and attention. Nothing more. And it is written by those who are lucky enough to have tested it. Fortunately, because, moreover, the road is really impressive and offers glimpses and really beautiful views.Above all, it is the picturesque village of Olympos, with its houses almost suspended in the air, climbing on the edge of the mountain on one side, and descending down, in the opposite direction. Back in the nineteenth century, the village was completely isolated from everything else, built of natural stone and without chimneys, so as to be disguised as pirates (who often attacked Karpathos). Here, tradition reigns supreme: we still speak an ancient dialect, and find women dressed in traditional clothes with handkerchiefs on their heads and embroidered blouses.Among other things, it must be said that Olympos is dubbed the “Women’s Village” for the massive female presence and, above all, because once upon a time, men were out to fight pirates or to work. It’s a bit like a miniature outdoor museum. In all sincerity, even the presence of women in costume, and the many souvenir shops, seem more a forcing tourist, but it is still worthwhile to go so far, even to break the routine of the sea and beach of Karpathos.

Sphinx Babel
SHOPPING | CONTACT | NEWS | SUBSCRIBE ENG ITA ESP ENG ITA ESP Sphinx Babel and the mysteries of Bucegi mountains. How to arrive Sphinx Babel The Bucegi Mountains dominate the spectacular and evocative stretch of the Prahova valley, absolutely one of the most beautiful of the Carpathians. However, if someone tried to spell the term Bucegi on a search engine, the result would be something like this: The sphinx and the mystery of humanity (alien?); Romania, the enigma of an incredible structure in the Bucegi Mountains; Tunnels and alien bases in the Bucegi Mountains; Alien bases inside the Bucegi Mountains… The curve of the Carpați Mountains that takes the name Bucegi, has been enveloped for centuries by an aura of esotericism, increased by the presence of some singular attractions of geological origin, such as the Sphinx Babel, nicknamed “The Elderly“. We certainly do not want, here, to deepen mystical-esoteric arguments that are beyond our interests; nor, even less, do we want to review the various episodes that have occurred over the years, with more or less plausible testimonies (sifting through, we read about a farmer who found the remains of giant bones under an apple orchard or, again, strange seismic phenomena). Why talk about it, then? Simply because it is a truly evocative and extremely beautiful place to see. To this, add the presence of a rocky structure sculpted by the wind, at 2200 meters above sea level, the Sphinx, in fact. Breathtaking view and panorama. There is also a refreshment point where you can possibly stop. Whether you are going to Brasov, Bucharest or Sinaia, consider the possibility of a visit to the area: you will not be disappointed at all by the Sphinx Babel.
