It is a unique church that has already entered the mythology of Arcadia, although it was built in the 1970s. It is located directly opposite the archaeological site of Mantineia. It is one of the most important cities of the entire ancient Greek area. In Gortsuli place there are traces of the prehistoric city. Mantineia was a commercial and religious center of all Arcadia with pan-Hellenic reach. The hundred-meter temple of Mesopolitan Artemis was respected by all Greeks.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-136c542 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"136c542\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-8f59479\" data-id=\"8f59479\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-adf7246 elementor-widget elementor-widget-icon-box\" data-id=\"adf7246\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"icon-box.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-wrapper\">\n\n\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-icon-box-content\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<h3 class=\"elementor-icon-box-title\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span  >\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\tHistory and myth\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-icon-box-description\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\tThe journey through the history and legend of Arcadia continues with a visit to the Acropolis of Nestani. In a mild and beautiful landscape the Arcadians worshiped the Great Mother, the goddess Demeter. The Acropolis of Nestani with the well-preserved gate of the ancient wall and the ruins of the ancient tower shows with its size the importance of the whole area. Actually, Nestani, being right on the junction that connected Arcadia with Argolis, was a very important commercial area. That is why Philip the Macedonian himself visited it. The Fountain built by the great soldier is also preserved. The acropolis is built with theoretic stones and is one of the oldest found, of Pelasgian origin.\n\nOn the rock of Goula there is the important church of Panagia Gorgoepikou. It is a meeting point for Arcades everywhere, but also for visitors, at the great festival of Panagia. The Rock was a large sanctuary, clearly prehistoric. The entire area of \u200b\u200bNestani holds the mysterious color of an ancient history. Just 15 kilometers from Tripoli, this quiet and well-preserved village, with its wonderful square, is our modern version of the eternal Arcadia.\t\t\t\t\t<\/p>\n\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-a78e3b0\" data-id=\"a78e3b0\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-27da325 animated-slow elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"27da325\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInUp&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"576\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/\u0391\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03c5\u03bc\u03bf-\u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf-3-576x1024.jpg\" class=\"elementor-animation-float attachment-large size-large wp-image-2520\" alt=\"\u0391\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03c5\u03bc\u03bf \u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf 3\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/\u0391\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03c5\u03bc\u03bf-\u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf-3-576x1024.jpg 576w, https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/\u0391\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03c5\u03bc\u03bf-\u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf-3-169x300.jpg 169w, https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/\u0391\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03c5\u03bc\u03bf-\u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf-3-768x1365.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/\u0391\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03c5\u03bc\u03bf-\u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf-3-864x1536.jpg 864w, https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/\u0391\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03c5\u03bc\u03bf-\u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf-3-200x356.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/\u0391\u03bd\u03ce\u03bd\u03c5\u03bc\u03bf-\u03c3\u03c7\u03ad\u03b4\u03b9\u03bf-3.jpg 1080w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 576px) 100vw, 576px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-33 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-95ddf22\" data-id=\"95ddf22\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-590a61d animated-slow elementor-widget__width-initial elementor-invisible elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"590a61d\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-settings=\"{&quot;_animation&quot;:&quot;fadeInRight&quot;}\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img decoding=\"async\" width=\"453\" height=\"600\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/ostramainalonsuites-ekdromes-speriigithite-stin-arxaia-istoria-tis-arkadias-02.jpg\" class=\"elementor-animation-float attachment-large size-large wp-image-2979\" alt=\"ostramainalonsuites ekdromes speriigithite stin arxaia istoria tis arkadias 02\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/ostramainalonsuites-ekdromes-speriigithite-stin-arxaia-istoria-tis-arkadias-02.jpg 453w, https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/ostramainalonsuites-ekdromes-speriigithite-stin-arxaia-istoria-tis-arkadias-02-227x300.jpg 227w, https:\/\/www.ostra.gr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/07\/ostramainalonsuites-ekdromes-speriigithite-stin-arxaia-istoria-tis-arkadias-02-200x265.jpg 200w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 453px) 100vw, 453px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Starting from Tripoli, one can tour the ancient history of Arcadia, in the great Mantiniko Field.
