Top Attractions in Argos
💡 Buy a small bag of freshly shelled walnuts or a wedge of aged myzithra cheese from the dairy stall near the main entrance. Best visited before 11am when the selection is fullest.
💡 Walk up the steps to the top rows for a sweeping view of Argos and the plain towards Nafplio. Go in the late afternoon when the light is golden.
💡 Park near the church of Agios Petros and walk up the stepped path – it’s a steep 15-minute climb but worth it. No water or shade at the top, so bring a bottle and a hat.
💡 It’s often locked – ask at the café opposite for the key, or visit during Sunday morning service. The frescoes are faded but atmospheric.
💡 The €3 ticket (reduced to €2 in winter) also covers the nearby archaeological museum – buy the combo ticket. Go early to avoid the heat and see the mosaics in the bath complex clearly.
