Litochoro and Mount Olympus - Greece HD Travel Channel
Litochoro (Λιτόχωρο) lies at the foot of the massif of Mount Olympus. The town is an ideal starting point for hiking, biking and excursions in the surrounding forests and valleys.
After short time, we reach the new monastery of Agios Dionysios in the former monastery property Skala in the valley of the river Enipeas which is still inhabited by a substantial number of monks.
Over a mountainous road with beautiful views of the coastline and through the wild and romantic valley we drive in the direction of Mount Olympus to the derelict old Agios Dionysios Monastery. It is located about 18 km from Litochoro at an altitude of 900 m and was destroyed in 1943 by the troops of the German occupation in order to stop the partisan struggle. It is currently being restored.

Litochoro (Λιτόχωρο) liegt am Fuß des Gebirgsmassivs des Olymps (Όλυμπος). Der Ort dient als Ausgangspunkt für Wanderungen, Radtouren und Exkursionen in die umliegenden Wälder und Täler.
Im Tal des Enipeas erreichen wir nach kurzer Zeit das neue Kloster Agios Dionysios im ehemaligen Klostergut Skala, das noch heute von einer größeren Anzahl von Mönchen bewohnt wird.
Richtung Olymp fahren wir über eine bergige Straße mit schönen Ausblicken auf die Küstenlandschaft und durch das wildromantische Tal bis zum ursprünglichen halbverfallenen Agios Dionysios Kloster. Es liegt ca. 18 km von Litochoro entfernt auf einer Höhe von 900 m und wurde 1943 von den Truppen der deutschen Besatzung zerstört um den Partisanenkampf zu unterbinden. Derzeit wird es wieder restauriert.

Messene - Greece HD Travel Channel
After the victory of Thebes over Sparta in 369 BC, Messene was founded by the commander Epaminondas as the capital of Messenia, in order to prevent a regaining strength of Sparta. The city was still inhabited during the Byzantine period. Ancient Messene is located about 18 mi. north of the foundation of the modern era. The excavations took place only recently and are still ongoing. Significant is the Asclepieion, an ancient sanitarium with a large inner courtyard enclosed by columns.
Here you can watch the archaeologists and conservators at work. In the video you see Italian students under the guidance of their professor just excavating a grave and examining the newly discovered skull.
A special feature is the exposed Messene treasure room - the safe of the city -- where gold and silver was stored. Recently, the magnificent Ekklesiasterion was excavated. In former times it was used as for political meetings.
The monumental stadium, bordered on three sides with rows of erected pillars, is one of the most beautiful and best preserved in Greece. The gigantic city wall - once 5.6 mi. long - is broken by the colossal Arcadian gate with its own interior.

Messene wurde nach dem Sieg Thebens über Sparta 369 v. Chr vom Feldherrn Epaminondas als Hauptstadt Messeniens gegründet, um ein Wiedererstarken Spartas zu behindern. Die Stadt war noch in byzantinischer Zeit bewohnt. Das antike Messene liegt ca. 30 km nördlich der Gründung aus der Neuzeit. Die Ausgrabungen fanden erst in jüngster Zeit statt und sind noch immer nicht abgeschlossen. Bedeutsam ist das Asklepieion, ein antikes Sanatorium mit großem, von Säulen umschlossenem Innenhof.
Hier kann man den Archäologen und Restaurateuren unmittelbar bei ihrer Arbeit zusehen. Italienische Studenten, unter Leitung ihres Professors, legen soeben ein Grab frei und begutachten den neu entdeckten Schädel.
Eine Besonderheit in Messene ist der freigelegte Schatzraum, praktisch der Safe der Stadt, in dem Gold und Silber aufbewahrt wurde. In jüngster Zeit wurde das prächtige Ekklesiasterion freigelegt, ein Veranstaltungsort, der auch für politische Treffen genutzt wurde.
Das monumentale Stadion, eingefasst an drei Seiten mit aufgerichteten Säulenreihen, gehört zu den Schönsten und Besterhaltenen Griechenlands. Die riesige Stadtmauer, einst 9 km lang, wird durch das kolossale Arkadische Tor mit eigenem Innenraum durchbrochen.
