"Goulas" is ideal place for unforgetable and romantic vacations.


At the far end of Peloponnese, on the southern east coast of the peninsula looking on to Mirtoon Sea, at a distance of 95 km form the town of Sparta stands Monemvasia. A distinctly shaped great rock "capsized ship" according to Greek poet Yiannis Ritsos rising from the sea, only a few meters from the coast is often refered as the "Gibraltar of Greece".A thin strip of land links it with the Gefyra, a fishing village on the main land. It takes 15 to 20 minutes walking from Gefyra to Monemvasia. There are several churches around like Panagia Chrisafitissa, Panagia Mirtidiotissa, Chistos Elkomenos, Agia Sofia.
The Fort city of Monemvasia with the one and only gate as its name suggests (Moni=sole, Emvasia=entrance) turns a dream into reality.
In subsequent years, they faced frequent raids. Normans tried unsuccessfully to seize Monemvasia in 1147. In 1249 William Villehardouin conquered it after a threeyear siege. In 1460 it came under the authority of the Pope, while Venetians followed up to 1550. Turks seized it in 1715 and it was liberated in 1823. The church of Agia Sofia overlooks the region at the bleakest part of the rock and is one of the most beautiful worship spots in Greece.
From Monemvasia the visitors have the possibility to make daily trips to nearby place such as the village and the port of Gerakas which is like a little frjod,the Monastere of Evagelistrias,the village of Kiparissi,the caves of Diros and Ano Kastania,the island of Elafonisos,the city of Mystras e.t.c.
