NAFPAKTOS, ETOLOAKARNANIA, GREECE #8110A
The town of Nafpaktos is a popular tourist destination. Its long history and tradition is evident in its narrow cobbled streets. Its main attraction is the Castle, which is unique in Europe; its walls lap the east side of the hill on which the castle is built and extend to the picturesque Venetian port ending in two turrets.
The beautiful town of Nafpaktos is mostly known in Europe from the Battle of Lepanto in the 16th century, where the Christians fought against the Ottomans.
There are many lovely beaches in the town and surrounding area for the summer visitors, however it also provides interest for the winter tourists.
Nafpaktos lies at a distance of 216 km from Athens.
Taken on an outing November 3rd, 2012, with my English wife Theresa Jane Brown.
