The Chasm of Heaven, the largest chasm of the Corycian Caves, 250m long, 110m wide and 70m deep, was formed when the ceiling collapsed due to chemical erosion by an underground stream. A pathway with 452 steps, mostly ancient, leads you to the cave 260m long at he bottom of the chasm. The Chapel at the entrance of the cave was built by a religious man named Paulus in the Honour of Saint Mary in the 5th or 6th century A.D. (Source: The Governorship of Silifke) |
