      Fantastic three day escape - sweet restaurants, great accommodation options and a lovely space. They are doing quite a bit of renovation so the upper castle wasn't accessible but still incredible to be there.

      Monemvasia is as small rocky island, reached by a causeway and bridge. The town is entered by a single gateway and this is how the name of Monemvasia is derived.The town has many narrow streets and interesting buildings, many of which have been restored. There are some interesting shops and quaint cafes. It is possible to climb to the Upper Town, but time didn't allow this and I imagine some fitness is required.

      having visited this island while on a thomsons cruise we walked across the recent causeway to this rock in the sea and it isn t until you walk round to the other side that you see its secret an entrance built into the rocks through which is revealed this secret little village built into the rocks. With little cafes with terraces on one side overlooking the sea and small local shops on the other you wind your way to the heart of the village and the church of christ in chains A must on any sightseeing tour of greece

      I have now been to Monemvasia twice and will gladly revisit if I am in the area again.This medieval castle town which until 1971 was accessible only by the sea is not visible from the mainland (where the new town has been built); now you an drive over the causeway connecting it to the mainland all the way to the castle entrance and park freely along this road.The streets of the castle town are only wide enough for pedestrians and donkeys; a lot of the old mansions have been converted to guesthouses and boutique hotels. There are a lot of bars, restaurants and boutiques selling local handicrafts and products.A stop in the main square where you can visit the famous church of Christos Elkomenos (Christ in Chains) as well as take photos from the square overlooking the sea.Another stop is in front of the house and bust sculpture of Yannis Ritsos, the poet born here in 1909.Finally if you are up to it and have good shoes, you can climb all the way up to the mountain and visit the Agia Sophia church and take in the spectacular view of the surroundings.

      Monemvasia is known as the "Gibraltar of the East" A small island joined to the mainland by a narrow strip of land, a bridge that coexists with the watery element Myrtoou Sea. Entering the rock the only entrance - "only remitting" whence the name of the town Monemvasia - begins the journey into the past, from the 6th century, inhabited today.In the Castle there are 40 churches, including the Virgin Chrysaphitissa of Myrtidiotissa Virgin, Our Lady of the Cretan woman, St. Nicholas, St. Stephen, St. Paul, St. Anne, and the silversmith workshop and museum.Within castletown not coaches. Best option is to park in New City and the transition to the Castle with the available bus. Parking to the gate of the Castle is very good and is dykoli be avoided. There are places where parking is prohibited, and drivers will be particularly careful.

      Hotel Kalderimi where we spend a night was perfect. The couple Paraskevas and Fotini who run it are very friendly and kind. The place is out of this world. Had some problems with the behaviour of locals and the prices are comparatively high.

      An amazing caste-town with tons of hidden gems! Take your time to explore this magnificent place full of restaurants, bars and hotels to stay but yet so magical. This is a unique experience as there is no other place like that in Greece. If you go in summer time, then choose to stroll around in the evening as the heat is really not helping in the morning.

      The citadel of Monemvasia have a unique place in old greek cities. It is the only one castle with habitants in our days, in Greece. It is hide from the land and you can not ss him from the city shore of Monemvasia. You must cross the see on the road, to the island, in front of Monemvasia city, and go a few hundreds of meters on the right. If you there early in the morning you will be rewarded with some of unique views. If you travel in the South of Greece, this is the hidden pearl of region!
