The Peloponnese is a large peninsula in southern Greece, separated from the mainland by the Corinth Canal and connected by the Isthmus of Corinth. It is one of the most historically rich regions in the world, home to four UNESCO World Heritage Sites — Ancient Olympia, Mycenae and Tiryns, Epidaurus, and Mystras — as well as the medieval castle-town of Monemvasia and the dramatic Mani Peninsula. The region blends Bronze Age citadels, classical temples, Byzantine ghost towns, Venetian fortresses, and rugged Mediterranean coastline into a single destination that rewards slow travel.
