Visit the region: Arcadia
Arcadia

Arcadia is located in the middle of the Peloponnese, and constitutes one of the most interesting regions of Greece, thanks to its significance in mythology, archaeological treasures and monuments, glorious history and its unique natural beauty. According to Greek mythology, many ancient gods were born in Arkadia. The most important of all, was Panas, the God of music and the countryside. Τhe literary genre of pastoral poetry was developed in Arkadia and that's where the famous Arcadian idealism for life flourished, exalting the love for nature, music, spiritual and physical relaxation and faith in human values. Its wild mountains, impetuous rivers, lakes, wetlands, wildflowers, the myriad of herbs, cultivated land, the mountainous grazing land, the majestic mountainous traditional settlements, and the clear blue sea. All these colour combinations, pictures and contrasts compose the magic of the Arkadian landscape.
