When exploring the south coast of Greece’s Peloponnese, I make Kardamyli my home base. And, while its coast is remote, the interior is even more so. The stony village in this clip is named Kastania, which I could imagine means forlorn in Greek. We filmed here four years ago, and I just had to return to my favorite little church — nothing’s changed…same cobwebs.

Saw church yesterday on your tour. Colin pointed out the previous local beliefs with the mosaics of the zodiac and other mythological creatures intermixed with religious icons. Nice contrast to 2 other quaint, more traditional, churches seen in the area. Each with their unique characteristics. Although small, there is a lot of preserved quality art present. Well worth the visit for a step back in time, the art and friendly people.
