The Guardians readers selected their favorite small European cities. Among them is a Greek city.
Through the eyes of its readers, the British newspaper Guardian featured small towns across Europe that promise travel surprises far from the tourist crowds. Among them is Nafplio!
Just 140 km. from Athens, the beautiful city of Argolis is a year-round destination that uniquely blends the beauty of the sea with rich history and charming sights.
Specifically, a reader writes about the holidays she spent in Nafplio: «It is a paradise for history lovers with the Palamidi fortress (they say you need to climb 999 steps but you can also go by car), the Bourtzi castle and many museums to see, but we also enjoyed the walk along Arvanitia beach and exploring its cobbled streets with the shops, bars and tavernas».
Also, the Guardian reader mentions that the stunning ancient theatre of Epidaurus is half an hour from Nafplio.
