- Corinth - An incredible marvel of beauty and engineering! The Corinth Canal, one of the most efficient constructions ever created, has been in continuous operation since 750 BC. This remarkable feat of ancient engineering connects the Saronic Gulf with the Corinthian Gulf, significantly contributing to the development of the shipping industry by drastically reducing travel time for vessels. Stretching 6.4 kilometers in length and with a width of 21.3 meters, it allows ships to bypass the long and perilous journey around the Peloponnese peninsula. Over the centuries, the canal has not only facilitated trade and commerce but also stood as a testament to human ingenuity and perseverance. Today, it remains a fully active and vital waterway, attracting thousands of tourists and maritime enthusiasts from around the world.

- Palamidi Castle - Perched atop a 216-meter high hill east of the Acronauplia in Nafplio, Palamidi Fortress stands as a testament to Venetian ingenuity during their second occupation of the region from 1686 to 1715. Offering commanding views over the Argolic Gulf, the city of Náfplio, and the surrounding countryside, the fortress boasts a formidable presence. Accessible via a winding stairway comprising 913 steps from the town to the fortress, reaching the summit requires traversing over one thousand steps, although local lore in Nafplion insists there are precisely 999 steps to the castle’s zenith.

Nafplio, nestled on the hillsides near the northern tip of the Argolic Gulf, boasts a rich history as a significant seaport under various royal houses during the Middle Ages, initially held by the de la Roche family after the Fourth Crusade, then under the Republic of Venice, and finally, the Ottoman Empire. Serving as the capital of the First Hellenic Republic and the Kingdom of Greece from the onset of the Greek Revolution in 1821 until 1834, Nafplio holds a special place in Greek history.
