The Corinth Canal is one of the world's smallest ocean canals in the world and connects the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf in the Aegean Sea.
Ancient Corinth was a city-state on the Isthmus of Corinth, the narrow stretch of land that joins the Peloponnese to the mainland of Greece.
In the ancient city of Mycenae are the imposing ruins of a great city of the Mycenaean civilization, which dominated the Mediterranean world from the 15th to the 12th century B.C
Nafplio is the first capital of Greece and scenic seaport town in the Peloponnese that has expanded up the hillsides near the north end of the Argolic Gulf.
The theatre of Epidaurus represents the finest and best-preserved example of a classical Greek theatre. Even by today's standards, this monument stands out a unique artistic achievement.
