Argos
This very old but comfortable town of 25,000 people is often overshadowed by the bigger Nafplion just 12 km away. We used it as a base for two nights (staying at the pleasant Hotel Apollon) in our trip to ancient ruins in the region (such as Tiryns, Dendra and Midea).
Argos has the charm of a little town that has a wonderful center boasting a shallow pool of water crossed by a bridge or two and surrounded by restaurants, a church and a children's playground that is bustling with activity until late in the evening.
The food was great where ever we ate and there's something to be said about such a wonderful central plaza that gathers all the locals together for the evenings. Outside of the very center, though, things get much more quiet. Up on the hill looms Larisa Castle.
