Aegina is an island in the Saronic Gulf about an hour by ferry from Piraeus, briefly the capital of newly independent Greece in 1828-29 and known today for its pistachios and ancient temple. Visit the Temple of Aphaia, built around 500 BC, see the finds in the Archaeological Museum of Aegina, climb to the ruined medieval town of Paleochora, visit the Monastery of Agios Nektarios and hop across to Agistri.
