Arcadia at a Glance
Arcadia is an idyllic haven for nature lovers, history buffs, foodies and adventurers alike.
October 13th, 2015
Embraced by the mountain ranges of Mainalo, Parnon, Skiathio and Saita, Arcadia is an idyllic haven for nature lovers, history buffs, foodies and adventurers alike. After the collapse of Roman power in the west, Arcadia became part of the Greek-speaking Byzantine Empire, a period when the magnificence of its natural landscape inspired artists to depict it as the perfect vision of unspoiled wilderness and pastoral simplicity. Its widely – and wildly – varied landscapes of pine, chestnut and cherry forests, sparkling beaches, rivers, the stunning Lousios Gorge, ancient monasteries holding on for dear life to massive rock-faces and intriguing Frankish and Byzantine ruins, are steeped in mythology and history. In modern times, Arcadia is lauded for its heroic fight in the Greek War of Independence.
Today, its inhabitants continue to live in tranquil villages featuring traditional, stone architecture, such as Dimitsana, Kosmas, Vytina and Stemnitsa, where visitors can find accommodations ranging from cozy, old-fashioned elegance to modern boutique style. An appealing location year round, with a hot climate in summer and cool, snowy weather ideal for skiing in winter.
