Corinth is a city with a deep centuries-old history, which arose in the Bronze Age and became an important center of Mycenaean and ancient civilizations. Its uniqueness is in the combination of archaeological sites and sea landscape: there are ruins of ancient temples, medieval fortifications and picturesque coastal views, and the atmosphere is imbued with legends and traditions of the Peloponnese.
Man-made sights of Corinth amaze with diversity and significance. Among the main objects are the Temple of Apollo, dating from the VI century BC, and the ensemble of Ancient Corinth with the Temple of Octavia of the Roman period. Acrocorinth, an impressive fortress on a 575-meter-high cliff, reigns over the surrounding area, and the nineteenth-century Corinth Canal is an engineering marvel linking the straits and delighting visitors. Nemea, with its ancient city and archaeological sites, complements the list of historical points of interest.
Natural attractions are scattered along the coast and inland: Corinth Bay, former in ancient Lepanto, stretches more than a hundred kilometers and opens wide sea panoramas; Lake Stymphalia on the mountain plateau attracts lovers of quiet walks and bird watching. The surrounding hills and plateau of the Peloponnese offer scenic views, and the combination of sea, cliffs and green valleys makes the region ideal for nature lovers and photographers.
