1Corinth Canal
After the intial overwhelming feeling of being 90 meters above water level looking straight down,you will admire this beatiful canal with the narrow steep walls only 26 meters apart and about 6 kilometers long. The ancinets Greeks first thought of it but it wasn't possible with the machinery available at the time, so it wasn't until 1893 that it was finally completed.
