The ancient harbor of the Heraion (temple of ancient Greek goddess, Hera) of Perahora, after sunset. Corinthia, Greece


About 80 km from Athens and 25 km from Loutraki, close to the edge of Cape Malagavi, there is a beautiful archaeological site, the Heraion of Perachora, with 2 sanctuaries dedicated to Hera, the Hera Acraea ("of the cape") and the Hera Limenea ("of the harbor"). The location is really picturesque, with a beautiful small, natural harbor, and people swimming surrounded by antiquities !!! Close to the archaeological site you can also visit a beautiful lake, Vouliagmeni, with many great taverns. Right on the edge of Malagavi Cape, a few hundred meters from the archaeological site, you can see a beautiful lighthouse
