The Troupis Winery is located in the heart of the Mantineia vineyards at an altitude of 700 m. in the area known as Fteri. It is a modern family business of small capacity as it is exclusively involved with producing and bottling wine from the family’s privately-owned vineyards (approximately 80 stremmas) which they lovingly tend and cultivate. During harvest season (1/10-20/10) the winery is not open to the public
We decided to visit this small winery ex tempore with my spouse, as we were at Tripoli anyway visiting our local friends and had some room in our luggage left. As we went to to the winery, owner walk outside to greet us and gave us a small tour of their facility. After tour owner told about the winery, its products and let us taste their products which were excellent and something different compared to many other wines. We bought about 8 bottles to take with us back to Finland and just trying figure out how to get some more here, as those aren't available in our local liquor stores.

The Open-Air Water Power Museum, in Dimitsana (Peloponnese), highlights the importance of water-power in traditional society. Focusing on the main pre-industrial techniques that take advantage of water to produce a variety of goods, it links them to the history and daily life of the local society over the ages.
A must see in your trips to Dimitsana. A short trip to the past and to the importance of Dimitsana to the Greek revolution against the Turks.

you have to be careful driving in the slopes of the mountain in order to get an approach to the monastery. Parking is easy to find. the view is sensational, the atmosphere as you enter the monastery is magical, absolute peace and silence will calm you down. You must take a look at the temple of the small church inside the monastery, it is really beautiful. The drawings on the inner surface of the dome show the 4 stages of Christ-life, showing the genesis, baptism, crucifixion, and ascension.

It's a small department of the Greek War Museum. Very interesting. A must visit. Great for family or school visits.

Possibly the beauty and ancient dignity of Paleo Moni Filosofou is in the fact it lies in complete ruins. I am glad we had a local to help us decipher this ancient monastery. Don't go here expecting the restoration of the many other monasteries in the area. If adventurous, it is possible to look inside what must have been the ancient chapel, complete with a few remnants of frescos. I was saddened to see that someone had actually written graffiti across a priceless fresco. Please treat this site with as much reverence and care given to those monasteries watched over carefully by caretakers to this day.
