"Korinthus" Corinth by Heniko

Korinth was located on the isthmus that connects northern and southern Greece. Because the isthmus is narrow, ships traveling from east to west would often transfer their cargo by land through Corinth in order to resume their journey on the other side.
The little information I had read from travel books wasn't much use. It made Korinth look quite boring. Well, don't believe everything you read. It was wonderful in ancient Korinth. It was mostly ruins. The only thing standing were a few pillars from the temple of Apollo, but it was beautiful. In the background, towering over the ruins, was the Acrocorinth, a huge mountain with a fortress on top.

The climb to the top of the mountain was an hour and a half. The fortress covered all over the mountain top. Most of the fortress was in ruins except for some walls and a few gates. Still, it required time for exploration and I managed a free ride down.
And the canale of Korinth, so so breathetaking...a real marvel of the World...to stand there on the bridge just looking...makes you feel so small...like an ant in this World...
I couldn't believe I almost missed out on this! So you see dont always believe what you read in travel books!!!

• In a nutshell:One of the most breathtaking views in the World !!!
