You can also visit the archaeological monuments, such as: -The Baptist Monastery (Moni Prodromou), which is built on the root of a cliff on the left side of the ravine of Lousios, near the villages of Stemnitsa and Dimitsana. The landscape is impressive and reminiscent of Meteora and Mega Spilaio. -The ancient theatre of Megalopolis, one of the biggest monuments of the 4th b.c. century. - Τhe ancient Gortys, named after the classic ancient times, leading some to assume that the current Karytaina place name is a corruption of the name. It lies by the river Gortyni, who in the upper reaches was named Lucius, because there was bathied the baby Zeus, a name which it still retains today.
