A 20 minute drive will take us to Nafplion, a wonderful town with an intense medieval atmosphere that also served as the first capital of the country. On the top of a cliff above the town, you can find the fortress of Palamidi. Near the port is where you’ll be able to enjoy your lunch, with a wonderful view of Bourtzi; Bourtzi is an islet close to Nafplion, on which stands a fortress, constructed there to protect the town from naval attacks.
