One must-see destination in Western Greece is the ancient city of Olympia, where the first Olympic Games were held in 776 B.C. This area features ruins from the original Olympics and the Temple of Zeus, plus museums and archaeological sites that provide insight into ancient Greek history.
Another great spot in Western Greece is Meteora - an area with more than 20 monasteries perched atop breathtaking sandstone skyscrapers. The view here is truly awe-inspiring!
Finally, another historical gem worth visiting in Western Greece is Nafpaktos - where two significant battles were fought during antiquity: The Battle of Salamis between Greeks and Persians in 480 BC and The Battle of Lepanto between Ottomans against Venetians in 1571 AD.
