The Peloponnese is part of the Greek mainland but all but separated from the rest of it by the Gulf of Corinth, it is virtually an island.

This southernmost part of Greece is home to an astounding variety of imposing ruins, situated in equally varied and beautiful scenery -- massive mountains covered with low evergreen oak and pines surround coastal valleys and loom above rocky shores and sandy beaches.

Besides its illustrious historical heritage, the Peloponnese is the heart of modern Greece, time seems to have stood still in the smaller towns here, and the joy of exploring this region comes as much from the languid afternoons and evenings of lively question-and-answer sessions (Greeks have an insatiable curiosity about everything) as it does from seeing the impressive ruins.
