Geocache Description:


The village of Didima is situated on the mainland of Greece in the Peloponese and north of village Kranidi. It is a village that within its proximity houses a large cave and a crater exists, that is believed to have been created by the fall of a meteor.

At the bottom of the crater (which can be reached by a tunnel) are two tiny churches. One is of St. George in which traces of old frescoes are evident and the other is the tiny cave-like chapel of the Metamorphosis.

Go to the crater and answer to the following questions :

  1. How many iron bars has the window of the northern church? This is number X.
  2. How many crosses has the door of the northern church? This is number Z.
  3. Stay at the coordinates : 37° 28.182 N, 023° 10.057 E and count the steps of the stone stair. This is a two digit number. A=the first digit, B=the second digit.
Final coordinates : 37° 28.3BA N, 023° 09.8W E
W ??? A new parameter. W=X*Z (multiply X per Z, this result in a two digit number)
