A most interesting article. History is presumed to be dull, but your history was exhilarating and it’s a relief you don’t have to take a sword to Sparta to enjoy the marvels of a renowned and beautiful historic site.

In reply to Heather. If you like ouzo you'll love the anise-flavoured version of Tsipouro!

What a wonderful review Michele and so much helpful information. I would love to visit the Acropolis of Sparta and discover more of the history. How fascinating that it was once the most powerful state in Greece.

This was a fascinating read, and makes me really regret skipping over Sparta when I was in Greece. I will need to do a trip back and try some of that Tsipouro!

Wow, what an information-rich post! And such gorgeous photos of the timeless landscape of olive trees and mountains around Sparta. I would love to roam that landscape, stopping to explore those frescoes, the archeological museum and make my own mosaic at the contemporary mosaic studio.
It really is a good idea to visit less-travelled, less crowded cities and sites like Sparta especially during high season.
