Let’s explore Ancient Corinth 🇬🇷

For thousands of years, this city-state wielded power, wealth, and influence in Greece’s Mythical Peloponnese 🇬🇷

Today, this important and impressive archaeological site awaits your discovery and delight.

You begin at the mighty Temple of Apollo, dating from the mid-6th century BC.

Once, 42 marble columns held aloft the roof on this Doric temple.

Now, 7 original columns still stand tall to help you envision its archaic glory.

Wandering through Ancient Corinth, you imagine St. Paul the Apostle walking these streets.

History tells us that here he wrote his letter to the Romans in the 1st century AD.

You wonder if he sat under these shade trees or by the cool waters of the Peirene Fountain.

Next, you picture the Byzantines, Crusaders, Venetians, and Ottomans ruling Corinth over the centuries.

Later, you visit the Archaeological Museum of Ancient Corinth.

The museum displays some of the many treasures from excavations since the 19th century.

And its sculpture-studded courtyard is a serene place to rest and reflect.

As this wonderful day draws to a close, you’re happy to have chosen to stay overnight nearby.

So you can explore, experience, and be inspired by mighty monuments and magical moments.

In your own timing. And at your pace.
