Travel Tips from people who've been to Mistras
Mistras, also know as "kastro-politeia" (meaning "castle-town") may take your breath from the very moment you see the rock it has been built upon! It is worth walking all the way up to the castle! Since it shall take you several hours to see everything and read the necessary history - which is well-organized accross the small roads of Mistras' historical site - and walk along all important buildings and churches, you must taste "bouzopoula" with plenty of salt and pepper! I would advise you to go and eat "bouzopoula" (it is meat from young pig) to a small village nearby (about 1km from Mistras) which is called Parori. You won't regret it!
Good tip?

Comme la plupart du temps en Grèce, et surtout sur les sites touristiques, y aller dès l'ouverture (8h), ce n'est pas encore trop bondé de touristes mais il fait très chaud. Il faut prévoir 3h30-4h de visite, de bonnes chaussures et un chapeau !! (mieux vaut être sportif car ça monte sec !!!) Il faut mieux commencer par le château qui est situé tout en haut (se garer sur le parking de l'entrée haute), reprenne la voiture et faire le reste du site en entrant par le bas. C'est moins fatiguant que de commencer tout en bas et monter jusqu'au château... Attention mesdemoiselles il n'y a pas de toilettes !!!!
