Work n Holidays : Athens Greece old castle on the sea. Monevasia city tour Monemvasia, the medieval town featuring superb architecture and cobbled streets, is an ideal getaway all year round. In all honesty, I had avoided visiting Monemvasia, the medieval castle town on the southeastern coast of the Peloponnese, for many years, fearing the place had become an overly sentimental, somewhat superficial and clichéd destination, suitable only for lovebirds.
