Gytheio - Day 2
Spend the night in Gytheio. Visit the Diros Cave, a picturesque landscape untouched by human hands. Experience the humidity, saltiness, and low lighting as the boat glides through, revealing a breathtaking sight of white stalactites and stalagmites, creating an unparalleled spectacle. Gytheio, the port of Spartans, is a charming, lively town with beautiful neoclassical buildings. Despite being on the mainland, it exudes an “island vibe.” Enjoy a walk to Cranae Island, a stroll along the waterfront, nearby beaches, or visit museums. Gytheio offers a wide variety of food, entertainment, and shopping – everything you could wish for! - Acropolis & Fortification Castle of Mystras - Discover the mystical tower town of Mystras, located northwest of Sparta. Be enchanted by its medieval grandeur, including the Palace of the Despots (Anaktora), the stunning Cathedral of Saint Dimitrios, and the impressive Monasteries of Our Lady Pantánassa and Our Lady Perivleptos. Imagine Frankish princes and princesses in palatial mansions, foreign delegations with gifts, and bustling streets filled with peasants, pilgrims, and traders. This is where Spartans moved after the Crusaders. In 1448, the last Byzantine emperor, Spartan Constantine XI Palaeologos, was crowned here. The first Byzantine emperor was the great Constantine from Rome in 306 AD, and the last was Constantine from Sparta, who died in 1453 at the walls of Constantinople fighting the Ottomans, much like King Leonidas fought the Persians in 480 BC.
