Monemvasia, Greece

Why Walk Monemvasia

Monemvasia is one of the most dramatic towns in Greece — a medieval settlement built on the seaward side of a massive rock formation, invisible from the mainland. The name means 'single entrance,' and the only access is through a tunnel in the fortification walls. Inside, Byzantine churches, Venetian mansions, and winding stone lanes create an atmosphere of complete seclusion from the modern world.
