Bougainvillea-draped balconies hover above narrow lanes where cats nap in patches of afternoon sun. The imposing Palamidi Fortress demands a climb up 999 steps, but rewards with views that explain why this became Greece's first capital. Constitution Square fills nightly with families licking ice cream while debating which taverna makes the best moussaka. The tiny Castle of Bourtzi sits on its own island in the harbour like a stone ship permanently anchored in time. Ancient Tiryns offers Mycenaean ruins without the crowds of more famous sites. After exploring, join locals at harbourside cafes where the coffee comes strong and the people-watching stronger. Save an afternoon for Karathona Beach, where the water clarity makes snorkelling feel like flying.
