Let us follow the footsteps of the Greek geographer Pausanias (c. 110 – c. 180), who travelled throughout the mainland of Greece, writing about various monuments, sacred spaces and significant geographical sites along the way.
Reading his famous Description of Greece (Ἑλλάδος Περιήγησις), we will have the privilege to visit the Greece of Pausanias` times, exploring sights and places that may have otherwise become lost or relegated to myth or legend only.
