Crónicas de Argos
Argos, the oldest continuously inhabited city in Greece, has a rich history dating back to 7000 BC. Founded by the Pelasgians, it was later conquered by the Mycenaeans, who built many of the city's iconic landmarks, including the stunning Apollonia Archaeological Site. In the 19th century, Argos underwent significant architectural changes, incorporating Neoclassical and Ottoman influences, which are still visible in the city's historic centre today. The city's cultural identity is deeply rooted in its history, with a thriving arts scene and a strong sense of community.

Principais atrações em 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.
