Known as The Pearl of the Mediterranean, it's found by many to have an atmosphere and culture that is more Mediterranean, it's found by many to have an atmosphere and culture that is more Mediterranean than Middle Eastern. In ancient times, Alexandria was the capital of Greco-Roman Egypt; today, it's a city synonymous with commerce and sophistication.
Nauplion, Greece - Residing on the eastern coast of the Peloponnese peninsula, Nauplion is characterized by the Palmadi Fortress - a shining example of the city's Venetian occupation in the 15th century. The picturesque vista showcasing the Greek Islands is certainly worth the 999-step climb.
