Doxa cave

Doxa is a small but well-known cave in Marathos, on the island of Crete in Greece. There is a taverna located right next to the mouth of the cave. You can borrow flashlights at this taverna which is essential to go into the cave. From the entrance begins a downhill corridor that leads to four rooms. The name Doxa means glory in Greek.
