3 Days in Corinth

One of the most strategically important cities in the ancient world: the Temple of Apollo (550 BCE — 7 Doric columns still standing), the Acrocorinth (575m hilltop fortress — the most multi-layered fortification in the Peloponnese), the Corinth Canal (1893, 79m deep), Nemea (the ancient stadium with intact starting line), Mycenae (Lion Gate 1250 BCE, the Treasury of Atreus — the most perfect Bronze Age dome in existence) and Agiorgitiko wine at sunset on the Gulf of Corinth
