We visited the archaeological site of Cape Sounion, the temple to Poseidon and the other remains, as well as telling 3 curiosities…
Cape Sounion or Sunion was a key site in antiquity for guarding the shipping lanes both to Athens, as well as the famous silver mines of Laurium, the reason for Athens’ wealth.
Today it is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the vicinity of the Greek capital, promoted by travel guides as the ideal place to enjoy the sunset.
The “sunken city” of Old Epidaurus/Palea Epidavros (in Greek) is probably the most popular and known of the underwater ruins of Greece.
However, and unknown to the general public, there are other ruins in the vicinity beyond the famous “Roman villa” and the buildings that surround it, and in this video we will explore those ruins.

The dam of Tiryns
The Tiryns dam is one of the most important hydraulic engineering works in Greece and Europe of the Mycenaean era, although it is found hidden in plain sight.
This work consisted of two parts: a large retaining wall over 50 meters long and 10 meters high, and a canal one and a half kilometers long that carried the waters of three streams to another river in the vicinity to discharge into the sea.
This enormous work was done 3500 years ago to prevent floods in the population of Tiryns.
