Nafplion Hotels

While many do see fit to make a foray into the heart of Greece, perhaps to bask in the glory of incomparable UNESCO World Heritage Sites like Meteora or the Archaeological Site of Delphi, one area that compels comprehensive tours is the Peloponnese. The massive peninsula unfurls bucolic landscapes, exceptional village charm and first-rate city and town platforms like Patras, Kalamata, Corinth, Tripoli and Sparta. Nafplion is one Peloponnese hub in the mix and a gateway to nonpareil UNESCO World Heritage Sites like the Temple of Apollo Epicurius at Bassae, Archaeological Sites of Mycenae and Tiryns and Archaeological Site of Olympia. Important points of interest in the town of less than 15,000 people include the Castle of Bourtzi, Nafplion Archaeological Museum, Church of Saint Nicholas, Plateia Syntagmatos (Constitution Square), Peloponnesian Folklore Foundation Museum and Palamidi Fortress. With a superb restaurant and taverna scene and infectious convivial vibe, Nafplion is a terrific holiday target.
