Corinth is usually considered a day trip to visit the canal, which serves as a passage between the Aegean and Ionian seas.
It is known for the narrow strip of land known as the Isthmus of Corinth, which connects the Peloponnese to mainland Greece. The city offers a gateway to the Peloponnese region, inviting exploration of nearby wonders such as Mycenae and Epidaurus. The Corinth Canal, a marvel of engineering, adds to the allure, allowing for breathtaking views and maritime activity. The day trip to Corinth can also be clubbed with a trip to Acrocorinth, a mesmerising well preserved archaeological site. Ancient Corinth is located just 1 hour's drive from Athens.
The city of Corinth underwent several earthquakes and was restricted and reconstructed to its modern demeanour. Since it has lost its old charm, there is not much to do here. Its strategic location fostered cultural exchange and economic prosperity in antiquity.
