Six miles north-east of Argos, on a hill, lay the "rich in gold" ancient city of Mykenae (Mycenae). Founded by the hero Perseus and becoming favorite residence of Pelops and his descendants, it became the most important city of Greece at the times of the king Agamemnon. Master seafarers, they traded in the whole eastern Mediterranean sea, until the 12th century. In 1375 BC, they invaded Crete and conquered the Minoans, who had influenced them in the art, from as early as the 16th century BC. The Mykenaean people build cyclopean structures, but at the same time they created the finest works of art. These were the heroic and adventurous people of the Iliad, the romantic poet warriors, the purest and best of Hellenes. Mykenae is 180Km away from Castella Beach Hotel.
