Rio Castle, Castle in Greece
Rio Castle, known locally as the Castle of Antirrio, dominates the entrance to the Gulf of Corinth.
Constructed by the Ottoman Sultan Bayezid II in the late 15th century, it has experienced numerous battles.
This historic fortification stands as a testament to the Byzantine and Ottoman influences in Greek architecture.
Visitors to Rio Castle can explore its battlements and towers, often during daylight hours.
The castle is positioned at the Rio-Antirio strait, overseeing one of the world's longest multi-span cable-stayed bridges.
