- Corinth Canal - The Corinth Canal links the Gulf of Corinth in the Ionian Sea with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. It traverses the narrow Isthmus of Corinth, effectively separating the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland, which could be considered to make the peninsula an island. The canal is dug at sea level through the isthmus and does not…
- Corinth Canal - The Corinth Canal links the Gulf of Corinth in the Ionian Sea with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea. It traverses the narrow Isthmus of Corinth, effectively separating the Peloponnese from the Greek mainland, which could be considered to make the peninsula 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 feet) wide at its base, making it inaccessible for many modern ships. From a high vantage point, one can enjoy a stunning view of Corinth’s isthmus and admire the steep limestone walls while observing the vessels below navigating through the canal.
- Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos) - Corinth was a city-state located on the Isthmus of Corinth, the narrow land bridge connecting the Peloponnese to mainland Greece, approximately halfway between Athens and Sparta. The modern city of Corinth is situated about 5 kilometers (3.1 miles) northeast of the ancient ruins. For Christians, Corinth is renowned from the two letters of Saint Paul in the New Testament, First and Second Corinthians. Corinth is also mentioned in the Acts of the Apostles as part of Paul the Apostle’s missionary journeys. Additionally, the second book of Pausanias’ Description of Greece is dedicated to Corinth. Ancient Corinth was one of the largest and most significant cities in Greece, with a population of 90,000 in 400 BC. The Romans destroyed Corinth in 146 BC, rebuilt a new city in its place in 44 BC, and later established it as the provincial capital of Greece.
- Acrocorinth - Ancient Corinth is overshadowed by the hill of Acrocorinth, the oldest and largest castle in southern Greece. Acrocorinth was continuously inhabited from archaic times until the early 19th century. With its reliable water supply, Acrocorinth’s fortress was frequently used as a final line of defense in southern Greece, as it controlled the Isthmus of Corinth, preventing enemies from entering the Peloponnese peninsula by land. Visitors can explore the ruins and capture stunning photos of the Peloponnesian landscape.
