    Ancient Corinth (Αρχαία Κόρινθος)

    There are many myths associated with Ancient Corinth. It was founded by Corinth, son of the god Helios. The dynasty of the ancient kings of Corinth begins with Sisyphus himself. Jason and Medea arrived here after all the adventures, and here the leader of the Argonauts abandoned her, deciding to marry another. Later, in the Classical period, the city became rich thanks to its strategic location and control of transportation through the Corinthian Isthmus. In the middle of the 1st century AD, Apostle Paul arrived here. The podium from which he addressed the Corinthians has been preserved. Be sure to visit the archaeological museum, which is located on the territory of the complex.

    Nemea Ancient Stadium (Αρχαίο Στάδιο Νεμέας)

    Nemea is known first of all for the fact that Hercules made his first feat here, killing the Nemea Lion. In Ancient Nemea there is a stadium where the Nemea Games, similar to the Olympic ones, were held. By the way, according to legend, the stage is a distance of 600 feet of Hercules. The area is also interesting for the ruins of the temple of Zeus, which gradually returns to its previous form.

    Palivos estate (Κτήμα Παλυβού)

    The Nemey region has inherited one of the world's oldest winemaking cultures. Since ancient times, vines have been cultivated here exclusively for the purpose of making wine. In ancient times German wine was called "lion's blood", in memory of the first feat of Hercules. Now it is the most interesting wine-growing region in Greece with many vineyards, wineries and famous wine roads. Visit one of the wineries, learn about the process and taste the wines that are produced from the local Agiorgitiko (St. George) vine variety.
