Sights of Loutraki
29-11-2012 13:56Discover the sights of Loutraki: waterfalls, lighthouse, lake... The region of Loutraki in Corinth, Peloponnese has things to impress you. Enjoy a trip there, it's only one hour away from Athens.
WATERFALLS
In fact the waterfalls were made of the municipality, and when implemented about 2 decades ago, it was considered pioneering at the time! Over time the artificial waterfalls have retained the title of the must stop of the city, while the cafeteria that is located right next to them is an ideal choice for a city break with view to the sea and the sound of flowing water to… refresh your mood!
LIGHTHOUSE MELAGKAVI KORINTHIAS
From the lighthouse you would enjoy the most beautiful sunset! Take the road to Lake Vouliagmeni, turn right towards Heraion and the lighthouse will pops up proudly in front of you. The short distance is worth the walking to approach it. The story turns back in 1897 when it opened with petrol as energy source. Then it remained off during the Second World War, to start again in 1947. The lighthouse was electrified in 1982 for the first time and till now is the favourite destination for every romantic soul, for moments of peace and daydreaming!
LAKE
The grandeur of nature is revealed before you just a few kilometres north of the city. After passing the picturesque Perachora, heading northwest, you will find the Lake of Heraion or Lake of Vouliagmeni, as it is more commonly known. Do not hesitate to take a swim in the crystal clear blue waters, surrender in the unique beauty and enjoy fresh fish taverns, situated right on the shore.

We found the best scandinavian bar in Naxos!
Touristorama has been travelling all around Greece and its islands for over a decade. This year, during our trip to Naxos, the biggest of the Cyclades complex, we discovered an interesting spot, perfect for your night out on the island… which is what we do best: finding the best places and then propose you should visit them! Prime is a Scandinavian Bar, located on a privileged position in Chora of Naxos, opposite the port. It’s been operating for 21 years and enjoys a great fame to both foreign and local tourists.
Something old, something new.... Marmita combines them both!

Aktaion - Writing gastronomic history since 1922
Like a relay race of three generations; a journey with happy days, sad days, joys, sorrows, wars, Occupation, poverty, hunger, deaths, volcanic eruptions, catastrophic earthquakes, flee for a better life, return, better days, feasts, tourism explosion, financial crises and so on… Everything has been indelibly inscribed on the walls of this small building, Aktaion. I feel grateful that life has given me the opportunity to hold the reins of Aktaion all the way to its centennial.
Santorini has a secret... but we have to share it.
It opened in 2004 and soon became one of the favourite dining spots in Santorini. It is called Metaxy mas which means.. between us, but it is not a secret any more that this restaurant has a rich menu with almost 40 different dishes and appetizers based on traditional Greek cuisine.
