    Leonidas Monument

    Stop at the monument to Tsar Leonid. Unfortunately, it is almost the only place in modern Sparta that recalls the heroic times.

    Mystras Castle Town (Καστροπολιτεία Μυστρά)

    The medieval fortress city Mistras, where the last Byzantine emperor Constantine Paleologus was born, grew up and ascended the throne. Mistras Archaeological Complex is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. The palace complex and many magnificent Byzantine temples with frescoes of XIII-XIV centuries are preserved. The complex is really big and is located on a rather steep slope, so it is better to see the upper part first, and then go out and go down by car to the lower entrance.

    Lazareto Hotel

    Accommodation in a hotel in Monemvasia. The fortress city of Monemvasia is located on an island connected to the mainland by a narrow isthmus bridge. Monemvasia means "the only entrance" in Greek. You can accommodate in the fortress itself. Very picturesque and unusual, but quite expensive hotels and a car will need to be parked on the road leading to the fortress, where you will find a place. The second option is to settle in a modern city, before entering the bridge. Parking is easier, but you will have to walk about 2 km to the fortress. In my opinion, the most successful option is the Hotel Lazareto, which is already on the island itself, 800 m from the entrance to the fortress, and where there is a parking lot. An evening walk and dinner in the fortress.
