Named the "rock" or "Gibraltar of the east" it is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the Peloponnese, attracting Romantic couples with its Medieval setting high above the sea. The 1 km long island is linked to the mainland by a 200 meters bridgeway while entering the island is allowed only by foot. The village of Monemvasia is built behind a hill under the cliffs, hence its unseen until you enter the main gate under the fortified wall. The village’ medieval buildings have been restored with many converted into hotels, and those hanging from steep rocks overlooking the sea have been converted into taverns and bars.
