Perama (Greek: Πέραμα) is a town and a former municipality in the Ioannina regional unit, Epirus, Greece.
[2] It lies about 4 km north of central Ioannina.
The town's name means "passage" and it lies on the northern edge of lake Pamvotis (Greek Παμβώτις).
The cave, extending five kilometres below the ground and having been explored fully only up to one kilometre, has a remarkable arrangement of stalagmites and stalactites.
An 11th-century church in the town dedicated to Saint Haralambos and reputedly built by Byzantine Emperor Alexius Comnenus is in a bad state of repair and is rarely open to the general public.
