- Corinth Canal - The Corinth Canal links the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. It traverses the narrow Isthmus of Corinth, effectively separating the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland, which arguably turns the peninsula into an island. The canal is dug at sea level through the Isthmus and does not have any locks. It stretches 6.4 kilometers (4 miles) in length and is only 21.4 meters (70 ft) wide at its base, making it unsuitable for most modern ships. Today, it holds little economic significance and primarily serves as a tourist attraction. The canal was first proposed in classical times, with an unsuccessful attempt to construct it in the 1st century AD. Construction began in 1881 but faced geological and financial challenges that led to the bankruptcy of the original builders. It was completed in 1893, but due to its narrowness, navigational issues, and occasional closures for landslide repairs from its steep walls, it did not attract the expected level of traffic.
- Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos) - According to legend, the first kings of Corinth were descendants of Sisyphus, who was punished by the Gods for his arrogance by being forced to roll a massive boulder up a hill, only for it to roll back down each time he neared the top, repeating this action for eternity. Thanks to the traffic and trade over the Isthmus, the narrow land strip connecting the Peloponnese to mainland Greece and Attica, this ancient city, founded in the 10th century BC, could rival Athens and Thebes in wealth and fame. Until the mid-6th century BC, Corinth’s primary export was black-figured vases, many of which reached various colonies in Magna Graecia. The grand temple on its Acropolis (the Acrocorinth) was dedicated to Aphrodite. Corinth was a significant cult center for the Goddess of Love throughout its history. According to some sources, over a thousand temple maidens served there.
- Archaeological Site Mycenae - Mycenae is an archaeological site near Mykines in Argolis, northeastern Peloponnese, Greece. It is situated about 120 kilometers (75 miles) southwest of Athens, 11 kilometers (7 miles) north of Argos, and 48 kilometers (30 miles) south of Corinth. The site is 19 kilometers (12 miles) inland from the Saronic Gulf and is built on a hill rising 900 feet above sea level. In the second millennium BC, Mycenae was a major center of Greek civilization, a military stronghold that dominated much of southern Greece, Crete, the Cyclades, and parts of southwest Anatolia. The period of Greek history from about 1600 BC to about 1100 BC is referred to as Mycenaean, in reference to Mycenae. At its peak in 1350 BC, the citadel and lower town had a population of 30,000 and covered an area of 32 hectares. The first accurate identification of Mycenae in modern literature was during a survey conducted by Francesco Grimani, commissioned by the Provveditore Generale of the Kingdom of the Morea in 1700.
- Nafplio - Nafplio is a seaport town in the Peloponnese, Greece, that has expanded up the hillsides near the northern end of the Argolic Gulf. The town was a significant seaport held by a succession of royal houses in the Middle Ages as part of the lordship of Argos and Nafplia, initially held by the de la Roche following the Fourth Crusade, before coming under the Republic of Venice and, finally, the Ottoman Empire. The town served as the capital of the First Hellenic Republic and the Kingdom of Greece from the start of the Greek Revolution in 1821 until 1834. Nafplio is now the capital of the regional unit of Argolis.
- Tolon - Tolon is a seaside town, located 7 kilometers (4 miles) east of Nafplion. Visitors can enjoy lunch at a traditional family-owned restaurant while taking in the view of the Saronic Gulf.
- The Ancient Theatre of Epidaurus - Epidaurus (3rd Century B.C) is a spiritual destination worth visiting for its sites such as the Sanctuary of Aesculapius and the ancient Theater with its exceptional acoustics. The Sanctuary of Aesculapius was a healing and cultural center in ancient times, and the Theater of Epidaurus is one of the few that retains its original circular Orchestra, offering a rare aesthetic experience, still in use today.
