View of the Corinth Canal from the Olympia Odos Bridge.
The Olympia Odos Bridge offers a dizzying perspective of the Isthmus of Corinth, the narrow land bridge that historically funneled all trade between the Peloponnese and mainland Greece. As the strategic gatekeeper of this passage, the ancient city of Corinth grew immensely wealthy by supervising the transport of goods and ships across this rugged terrain. Standing over this engineering marvel today, one can understand the relentless ambition to master the geography that once dictated the fate of empires.
