The first
capital of the Greek state and the most charming city of the Peloponnese is one of the favorite
destinations for all seasons of the year. The old town of Nafplio with the preserved mansions and the two Venetian castles, Palamidi which stands on a huge rock and overlooks the sea and Akronafplia which for many years
functioned as a prison.
Admire Nafplio
from above climbing the 999 steps leading to the imposing Palamidi castle. Walk the Arvanitia
pedestrian walkway that surrounds the rock of Akronafplia with the sea
under your feet. Browse the old town of Nafplio full of traditional taverns,
cafe-bars overlooking the imposing Bourtzi,
find yourself in the cobblestone Syntagma
Square and you will feel like you are in another era. Here is the Archaeological Museum, the Parliamentary house that housed the
first parliament of the free Greek state, the Old Mosque and the Museum of rosary.
The alleys
around this street are full of Turkish fountains and Turkish baths and
historical churches such as the Holy
Temple of Saint Spyridon where Ioannis (Antonios) Kapodistrias the first prime minister of Greece was murdered.
The seafront promenade will be unforgettable with a view of Bourtzi. This whole region has a great
history which is lost in the Ages.
