Attractions - Kissamos

Falassarna was a major ancient port city on the northwest coast of Crete. It minted its own coins stamped with a trident on one side and the first two letters (FA or ΦΑ) of the city's name on the obverse

Just inside the large cave entrance (which throws a lot of light into the cave), there is a little church with a metal star mounted on top of its facade. It shares its name with the cave; the church of Agia Sophia (Holy Wisdom).
