6Monemvasia Old Town

Known as the “Gibraltar of Greece,” Monemvasia is a medieval fortress town dramatically carved into a sea rock in the Peloponnese. Hidden from the mainland, the old town is accessible only through a narrow causeway.

Once inside, you’ll discover stone-built houses, Byzantine churches, and breathtaking views of the Aegean. A walk through its quiet, winding streets feels like stepping back in time.
