More info about travel to the Peloponnese: https://www.ricksteves.com/europe/greece/peloponnese Often referred to as the “Gibraltar of Greece,” Monemvasia is a virtual showcase of Byzantine, Turkish, and Venetian history dating back to the 13th century. Worth climbing: the steep zigzag path that leads up and up, out of the lower town, to ruins of the fortified upper town, and sweeping views of the Mediterranean Sea. #ricksteveseurope #ricksteves #peloponnese
