- Corinth Canal - The Corinth Canal is a waterway that crosses the narrow isthmus of Corinth to link the Gulf of Corinth to the Saronic Gulf. As such, the canal separates the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese, turning it into an island. The canal, though executed in the late 19th century, has been a 2000-year-old dream.

- Corinth Canal - The Corinth Canal is a waterway that crosses the narrow isthmus of Corinth to link the Gulf of Corinth to the Saronic Gulf. As such, the canal separates the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese, turning it into an island. The canal, though executed in the late 19th century, has been a 2000-year-old dream. Before its construction, ships in the Aegean Sea that wanted to cross to the Adriatic or anchor in Corinth, a rich shipping city, had to circle the Peloponnese, which would prolong their journey an extra 185 nautical miles. It is believed that Periander, the tyrant of Corinth (602 BC), was the first to conceive of the idea of digging the Corinth Canal. As the project was too complicated given the limited technical capabilities of the times, Periander constructed the diolkos, a stone road which allowed ships to be transferred on wheeled platforms.

Mycenae
The kingdom famously tagged ‘Rich in Gold’ and the realm of the legendary King Agamemnon as immortalized in Homer’s sprawling epics is Greece’s most significant and affluent palatial hub during the Late Bronze Age. This place lent its name to one of Greek prehistory’s grandest civilizations - the Mycenaean civilization. Generations of poets and writers have drawn inspiration from the myths linked to its history over various centuries.
Nafplio
Counted among the most stunning towns in Argolis region (located in eastern Peloponnese) and celebrated as one of the dreamiest cities in Greece, Nafplio held the distinction of being the inaugural capital of the freshly-formed Greek state from 1823 to 1834.
