  1. Corinth Canal A narrow canal that cuts through the Isthmus of Corinth, connecting the Aegean Sea with the Ionian Sea. Completed in 1893, it allows ships to avoid sailing around the Peloponnese. The canal is about 6.4 km long with steep cliffs nearly 90 m high, making it a popular quick stop for photos on Peloponnese tours.

About Athen

Athen rejser Akropolis over en vidtstrakt moderne hovedstad, hvor antikke ruiner, stræder i skråningerne og lange taverna-aftener ligger side om side.

Parthenon kroner Akropolis, flankeret af Erechtheion med sin veranda af karyatider, og Akropolismuseet ved bakkens fod viser skulpturer fundet på klippen. Rundt omkring gør Den Antikke Agora, Olympieion, Hadrians Port og det marmorklædte Panathinaiko-stadion den klassiske by let at gå gennem.

Top-ranked sights in Athen: Acropolis, Parthenon, Acropolis Museum.
