4Monemvasia, Peloponnese

Monemvasia is a medieval fortress town perched on a rock off the eastern coast of the Peloponnese.  

Accessible only by a narrow causeway, the town feels like a hidden world frozen in time. Explore the cobbled streets, visit the Byzantine churches, and enjoy panoramic views from the upper town. Monemvasia is particularly enchanting in the evening when the town is illuminated.
