Originally it was an island, but intense
geological upheavals in the region united and separated it
from the mainland twice. Later, a new retreat by the sea
formed the Isthmus of Corinth. This land bridge was
cut in the late 19th century to make the Corinth canal,
making the Peloponnese an island yet again.
The Peloponnese (Peloponnesus) is a rugged land with a
mountainous interior. The climate is purely Mediterranean
along the coasts, unlike the center which has a relatively
continental climate.
A mythical land whose every corner brings to mind some Greek
myth, the Peloponnese is composed of images and music, the
scents of the sea, of the mountains, of grapes, olives, and
citrus. The cities, towns, and spas of the region were
important centers in antiquity, and remain so today.
Villages seem to grow out of the grey rock, the wild stones
next to the hostile furze. Other villages lie by the vast
open sea, but everywhere the people are vital, hospitable,
haughty, and proud. |
