The palace of Nestor is just 5 km away. It was an important centre in Mycenaean times, and described in Homer's Odyssey and Iliad as Nestor's kingdom of "sandy Pylos".
The Palace of King Nestor From 1.300 BC was a two store building!!! Unbelievable for that period of time!!!
As you go to Voidokilia beach you can also visit this site. The site is the best preserved Mycenaean Greek palace discovered. The palace is the primary structure within a larger Late Helladic era settlement, once probably surrounded by a fortified wall. The palace was a two-storey building with store rooms, workshops, baths, light wells, reception rooms and a sewage system. The settlement had been long occupied with most artifacts discovered dating from 1300 BC. The palace complex was destroyed by fire around 1200 BC. In June 2016, the site re-opened to the public after the roof was replaced by a modern structure with raised walkways for visitors.
