The old kalderimi crossing the gorge of Aradena

 

A kalderimi is an old paved path. It comes from the Turkish KALDIRIM which means footpath or pavement .

From the numerous kalderimia (does the Greek plural form apply to such a word?) on the island this is the best kept example that I know. Possibly because it was in use until the 1980s when the bridge across the gorge was built. Possibly because it linked what were at times two important "cities" (Aradena and Anopolis)

The yellowish-green bush in the foreground is my favourtie euphorbia: Euphorbia acanthothamnos or Greek spiny spurge).
