Ancient Corinth

Prominent in art and architecture as well as religion, Ancient Corinth is one of the most important cities of Greece and the Mediterranean in general.

With a powerful history of almost 5,000 years, a gorgeous location, a once illustrious acropolis, and a religious complex, Ancient Corinth have always been a strong political, economic, and cultural player in its area- as much as Ancient Athens and Sparta if not more!

Though a terrible earthquake in 1858 tore down the ancient city, forcing its dwellers to rebuild modern Corinth nearby, a good part of it still stands today. Surrounded by gorgeous landscapes and promising impressive, unique views and vistas, Ancient Corinth is waiting to be discovered by visitors today, not unlike how it was experienced during the time of Pausanias, the ancient traveler, and geographer who marveled at its sight.
