- Palamidi Castle - On the journey to Nafplion, a visit to Palamidi Castle is planned. This castle was built by the Venetians in 1687. In 1715, it was seized by the Turks and remained under their control until 1822, when it was reclaimed by the Greeks.

It is recognized as one of the best-preserved Venetian buildings in Greece.
