Στους 50 απόλυτους προορισμούς για το 2018 συγκαταλέγει το Travel + Leisure την Περιφέρεια Πελοποννήσου, κάνοντας λόγο για το νέο αυτοκινητόδρομο Λεύκτρο – Σπάρτη, τον αγροτουρισμό, το λιμάνι του Γυθείου, την τοπική κουζίνα, όπως τα μανιάτικα ζυμαρικά, αλλά και τα μουστοκούλουρα. Ακολουθεί το αφιέρωμα:
The Peloponnese, Greece
The Greek highway system has seen several recent upgrades, with a new route making the 2,000-year-old olive trees and lesser-visited ruins of the Peloponnese, the country’s southernmost swathe of mainland, more accessible. Completed in late 2016, the new A71 highway from Lefktro to Sparta shaves off two hours of driving time from Athens, and has also connected the Lefktro region to nearby Kalamata Airport, about 90 minutes away. Meanwhile, ports have been expanded at Gytheio and Katakolon — the latter a stopping point for the Viking Star, which launched in 2014. Farming is still integral to the region, and agritourism resorts like Eumelia constantly refresh their food and wellness-themed workshops, in addition to serving local dishes like maniatiki pasta with dry mizithra cheese, and moustokouloura, or cookies made with grape molasses. Goddesses seeking more temple-like accommodations should head to Porto Heli, on the eastern side of the Peloponnese, where everyone is talking about Amanzoe’s new Villa 31, a serene space with grandstand views of the surrounding coastline that contains a unique installation by light artist James Turrell. —Adam Harney Graham
