Monemvasia, Greece, is an impressive castle town in the southeastern Peloponnese. It was built out of sight from the mainland to avoid enemy attacks. Visible only from the sea, it is connected to the mainland by a narrow road. Hence its name, which means "only passage." This fantastic place was originally built in the Middle Ages and has been continuously inhabited ever since. A stroll through the cobbled streets of the castle town is like a journey back in time, albeit one that is also very touristy.
