Patras is the capital of the Prefecture of Achaia, belongs to the region of Western Greece and is the largest economic, commercial and cultural centre of the Peloponnesus. The archaeological dig proved that Patras has been inhabited since the Palaeolithic period.
Many call it the Gateway of Greece to the west, mainly because of its port which is a hub of trade and the starting point of large ships on the line Greece-Italy.
The recent creation of the Rio-Antirio Bridge helped connect Central Greece with the Peloponnesus and gave impetus and an aura of development to the city of Patras, which gathers quite significant tourist traffic throughout the year.
The capital of Achaia, after its destruction by the Turks, was rebuilt in its modern form with large streets, comfortable squares and ornate buildings. Architecturally, it is a multifaceted big city, which is essentially divided into two imaginary parts.
The old town at the foot of the Castle has largely retained its character with several neoclassical buildings. In the Lower Town, which stretches from the beach to the Castle, corresponding architectural samples have also been preserved, such as the Conservatory and the Municipal Theatre.
Patras met early and embraced Christianity. Here was the place of martyrdom of St. Andrew who is the protector and patron saint of the city. In honour of Agios Andreas, the people of Patras have built a glorious temple, which is worth visiting.
However, Patras is known for its famous carnival which is an attraction for thousands of visitors. It has 190 years of history and is a set of events that include dances, parades, hidden treasure hunting, carnival of the little ones etc.
Local products of Patras that are worth trying are: Tentura, a liqueur with cinnamon extracts, which is usually served after the meal and the "intoxicating" mavrodafni a sweet wine, produced from black grapes.
