Areopoli, a landscape engraved on the rocks, is a traditional town in Mani, Greece. This charming town is named after Ares, the Greek God of war, and has a population of about one thousand inhabitants. Distinguished by its landscape and architectural style, Areopoli is definitely worth a visit.
The region experiences a Mediterranean climate with scorching hot summers and mild winters. It remains dry and sunny for a major part of the year, but the heat is tempered by seasonal winds known as Meltemi. Rainfall is scarce and is not well distributed.
In earlier times, Areopoli was known as Tsimova and was the site of the Greek War of Independence. Today, it has grown into a flourishing town with the small population making a living out of fishing, olive oil production and tourism.
