- Corinth Canal - The Corinth Canal is a waterway that traverses the narrow isthmus of Corinth, connecting the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf. This canal effectively separates the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese, transforming it into an island. It is believed that Periander, the tyrant of Corinth in 602 BC, first envisioned the idea of constructing the Corinth Canal. Due to the complexity of the project and the limited technical capabilities of the era, Periander built the diolkos, a stone road that enabled ships to be transported on wheeled platforms. In ancient times, this was a significant land crossing, utilized by travelers, merchants, and even the Apostle Paul during his visits to Corinth.
- Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos) - Ancient Corinth is one of Greece’s most historically significant regions, continuously inhabited from prehistoric times through the Roman and early Christian periods. Its strategic position between mainland Greece and the Peloponnese allowed Corinth to become a powerful city-state and a major commercial hub of the ancient world. The area includes notable archaeological sites such as the ancient city of Corinth, the Acrocorinth hill fortress, the ancient port of Lechaion, and several Roman and early Christian monuments, highlighting its archaeological and historical importance. Ancient Corinth was one of Greece’s largest and most significant cities, with a population of 90,000 in 400 BC. The Romans destroyed Corinth in 146 BC, rebuilt it in 44 BC, and later established it as the provincial capital of Greece.
- Archaeological Museum of Ancient Corinth - The Archaeological Museum of Ancient Corinth showcases significant artifacts from the ancient city, spanning from prehistoric times to the Roman and early Christian eras. The collection features statues, mosaics, pottery, everyday items, and Roman sculptures, illustrating the wealth and significance of ancient Corinth as a major Greek and Roman city. Visiting the museum enhances understanding of the history and daily life of the ancient city before exploring the archaeological site.
- Temple of Apollo - The Temple of Apollo in Ancient Corinth is one of Greece’s oldest Doric temples, dating back to the 6th century BC. Situated on a hill overlooking the ancient city, the temple was dedicated to Apollo and represented the power and wealth of ancient Corinth. Today, seven of its massive monolithic columns remain, providing visitors with a breathtaking view and a profound connection to the ancient Greek world.
- Nemea - Located in the hills of the Peloponnese, the valley of Nemea has been producing wine for over 3,000 years. This is where Hercules completed his first legendary labor—slaying the Nemean Lion—and where the ancients named the deep red wines of this land the Blood of Hercules. The Agiorgitiko grape, cultivated here since antiquity, is the only variety permitted under Nemea’s PDO appellation. Influenced by limestone soils, high altitude, and a unique microclimate, it produces wines of exceptional depth—rich ruby color, aromas of red fruit and warm spice, and a character unmatched by any other region in the world. A wine tasting in Nemea is more than just a visit to a winery; it is an immersion into a living landscape where ancient vines grow among ruins, family estates open their cellars, and each glass carries the legacy of a civilization that recognized, long before others, that wine is much more than a beverage.
