Waterfalls Potami

ust 3 kilometers away of Karlovasi, in “Potami” (“River”) area, the famous natural waterfalls of Samos are located. The waterfalls have an outstanding natural beauty and form two small lakes, ideal for those enjoying swimming in cold, almost icy, waters. In order to visit and admire the waterfalls, you have to drive all the way to Potami and then walk an additional distance (1,5 km long), passing by the Church of the Transfiguration (the oldest church of the island, which dates back to the 11th century). The walk by the river is amazing.

Cave Pythagoras

Another account of the story is that the cave was used by Pythagoras when he wanted to be alone and to think over the issues that preoccupied him, before his departure for Croton of Sicily. Panagia Sarantaskaliotissa is a Church of the 11th century, in which valuable frescoes are well preserved. We visited the cave by climbing the 140 steps leading to the “eagle’s nest” that you can see in the photographs. At the end of the route we reached the twin cave, Panagia Saradaskaliotissa on the left and the Cave of Pythagoras on the right!

Panagia Spiliani

The monastery’s priceless relic is the old miraculous icon of Panagia Spiliani (The Blessed Virgin Mary of the Cave), which has undergone many damaged, thus it is cracked. According to the local tradition, the cracking is due to the efforts made by some foreigners to steal and transfer the icon, in their place, by ship. Locals say that the icon of the Blessed Virgin Mary, wishing to remain in Samos, split and sank in the sea. It was later found on the beach and it was returned in the Church. This is why the icon is also known with the name “Kaliarmenissa”, since the icon sailed back to the island by itself.
