Methoni of Messinia
AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :
Methoni is an important town in the Messenia Region of southern Greece, which covers the westernmost of the four "fingers" that extend from the Peloponnese Peninsula. Its fortress played an important role during the Middle Ages and Early Modern periods, when the Peloponnese coastline was the subject of intense struggles between (at various times) the Byzantine, Venetian, and Ottoman Empires. In this drone video by walkinginhellas, you'll get an aerial view of the town as well as the fortress, which lies immediately to its south.

BADGES THIS VIDEO HAS EARNED:
Methoni is a town in the prefecture of Messinia In Homeric times it was called Pidassos. Homer describes her as Ambeloessa. He also mentions the city as the last of the seven "auspicious poultries" (beautifully painted cities) that Agamemnon offered to Achilles to appease his wrath. Some argue that Pidasos corresponds to today's Koroni while Methoni corresponds to Homeric Epia.
