It is a primitive place. When the old Arcadians themselves want to describe a person who is innocent and lives as nature intended, they say it\u2019s like he came from Arkoudorema. One of Kolokotronis\u2019 hideouts, as well as a haunt of nymphs and goddesses, it is a place of divine beauty. The remarkable church of the Assumption is one further reason to come here and submit to the metaphysical allure of the place.\nIn Falanthos, just seven kilometres from Arkoudorema lies the unique Libovisi, the village which is the birthplace of Kolokotronis. The restored family home of \u201cthe Old Man of Moria\u201d and the church of St. John with its long history, are pilgrimage sites for a large number of visitors. In the cool square, is a recreation area, operating since 2006, which supplies local, fresh products to visitors.\n<br><br>\n\u201cWhatever of our houses which you burned down, even if no stone on stone remains, we will never bow down. What if our trees you cut down and burn, the land cannot be moved, the same land that nourished those trees, this land remains ours and will grow again. If only one Greek stays, we will always fight and do not hope that the land will become your own. Forget it. \u201c\n<br><br>\nThis was the Great Kolokotronis\u2019 answer to the ultimatum sent by the ferocious Ibrahim. That voice echoes still in Kolokotronis\u2019 hideouts, and whoever wanders there will feel himself a part of history.\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<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Following 14 wonderful kilometres, surrounded by nature, one enters the territory of Falanthos.
