Description
Chalkida, is the chief town of the island of Euboea in Greece, is situated on the Euripus Strait at its narrowest point. The name is preserved from antiquity and is derived from the Greek χαλκός (bronze), though there is no trace of any mines in the area. In the late Middle Ages, it was known as Negropont, a name that was applied to the entire island of Euboea as well.
The phenomenon of Chalkida
One thing that characterizes Euboea and especially Chalkida is the phenomenon of "trela nera"(Crazy Waters). This phenomenon is a rare phenomenon that occurs in the Strait of Euripus under the bridge opening, where the flow of ocean waters changes. That is, when the water flowing one direction and then in the exact opposite direction. This change happens approximately every 6 hours.This phenomenon reaches its climax under the old sliding bridge where the speed of the water takes the maximum speed of 9 miles per hour. It is said that this speed of the water, a shark will struggle to swim in the opposite direction. This phenomenon is as follows: the waters move in the one direction for 6 hours, then for 8 minutes waters are stable and then they flow in the opposite direction for other 6 hours, then other 8 minutes the water is stable, and so on. It is this strange phenomenon that has given the city of Xalkida the nickname of "Crazy waters".
Stay tuned for the "Crazy Phenomenon"!!!!
