With past that is lost in the prehistory and the mythology, we find Kyparissia on the foot of mountain Egaleo with aquamarine waters of Ionian to wet her beaches. It is also called "Double State" after it was separated between the Ano Poli (Upper City), traditional with “kalnterimia” (streets with cube stone), hayjatia (overhang of the costruction in second floor-picture) and the incredible beautiful view in sea and the Down City, the newer, with the modern buildings, administrative and economic centre of region. The region is one from most beautiful in Greece, rich in verdures, with intact immense beaches, where even today the gigantic marine turtles caretta caretta select they little outside build their nests, from the city, in Kalo Nero (Good Water). Kyparissia is famous for the climate and her products but what makes and distinguishes it the most is the east and mainly her west that makes the horizon be ablaze... "In Kyparissia I have seen one of the most beautiful sunsets of my travels!" remarked the French Politicial Georges Clemenceau, when he came in the beginning of 20th century to inaugurate the railway of city. Every summer (between 10-15/8), an open bazaar with antiques and old items is organized in the Old Town of Kyparissia : Furniture, fine china, ceramics, old jewerly and paintings aree being displayed along a large paved path, waiting for visitors to choose among these valuable objects. The bazaar is organized by the Municipality of Kyparissia and local institutions since 2005 and this is the only periodic open antiques bazaar in Greece. In fact, it is organized according to other such bazaars in Europe. 26 kiosks work along the street "Megalo Kalderimi" of Kyparissia, with vendors from Athens, Patras, Pyrgos, Kalamata and other cities. The bazaar is open from morning till midnight. Wine tasting from local producers also takes place during the same period. Don't miss it!
