Nemea

We visited Nemea this weekend.



Temple of Zeus in Nemea


In Nemea there is this rather attractive archaeological site. In Antiquity, Nemea was the site where one of the 4 great games were celebrated.


Now, Nemea is more famous for the wine production than for the archaeological site. After the visit to the site, we entered casually two wineries and bought some bottles of wine. It is nice, as we cound try before we buy.

The scenery around Nemea is beautiful. If you live in Athens and have a car, why don't you pay a visit in weekends?
