Because of its strategic position as the gateway to the Peloponnese, Corinth has enjoyed considerable importance both now and in ancient years. Today, almost everyone stops to watch the boats negotiate a narrow pathway through the blue waters of the Corinthian canal.
Ancient Corinth consists of ruins, mostly from the Roman period. Remains of an ancient harbour, theatre and a temple to Apollo can be seen.
Nemea was where the legendary Hercules killed the Nemean lion. It is now a wine growing region.
