Messenia (/məˈsiːniə, -ˈsiːnjə/; Greek: Μεσσηνία Messinia, pronounced [mesiˈnia]) is a regional unit (perifereiaki enotita) in the southwestern part of the Peloponnese, one of 13 regions into which Greece has been divided by the Kallikratis plan, implemented 1 January 2011. Before 2011 Messenia was a nomos (prefecture). The capital and the biggest city of Messenia in either case has been the city of Kalamata.
Messenia borders on Elis to the north, Arcadia to the northeast, and Laconia to the southeast. The Ionian Sea lies to the west, and the Gulf of Messenia to the south. The most important mountain ranges are the Taygetus in the east, the Kyparissia mountains in the northwest and the Lykodimo in the southwest. The main rivers are the Neda in the north and the Pamisos in central Messenia.
Off the south coast of the southwesternmost point of Messenia lie the Messenian Oinousses islands. The largest of these are Sapientza, Schiza and Venetiko. The small island Sphacteria closes off the bay of Pylos. All these islands are virtually uninhabited.
More info: http://www.tripment.net Messinia is a region of Greece that I really enjoy each time I visit. As a person who likes to wander, without staying in one place, I enjoy it very much, as it has many beautiful places to visit. Natural beauty, beautiful beaches, good food, and all of this just 250km from Athens.

Ancient Messene was the ancient capital of Messenia. The city was founded by the Theban general Epameinondas in 369 B.C.who also liberated Messenians from Spartan rule. The archaeological site also comprises of the mountain fortification of Ithome with the long fortification line with towers which exist still today. In here, one can see the Arcadian Gate complex, a magnificent tower structure that connected the ancient Messene with the city of Megalopolis. It is widely accepted that inside the gate there were statues of Hermes.
Polylimnio Waterfalls are located near the village of Kazarma and are easily approachable. Although the waterfalls are on upper side of the small path, it is worth on following the path down the river to see the landscape as the river floes downstream. The place is a small paradise when one considers the location where the waterfalls are. It is by no means a place to visit if traveling on this area.
Methoni Castle is one of the most well preserved medieval castles in the Mediterranean Coast. It's position was a strategic one as it controlled all trade routes coming from the Adriatic Sea. The Castle is divided in two parts, the south part where housing and other buildings exist with a simple fortification and with towers in close spaces. The northen part which is more fortified is the main complex of the Castle and here was also the seat of the Castle's commander. The two parts are divided by a small fortified wall with five towers. Inside the Castle, there are some buildings that remain still intact among them the church of 'Metamorfosis tou Sotiros', a pyramid-like structure which was used as gunpowder storage and two Ottoman hamams. Also, close to the Ottoman hamams an old mina...

GREECE MESSINIA
A trip on the Peloponnese in the summer of 2011 visiting Mystras, the Mani peninsula and ancient Messinia.
I've got your calling card and it says don't call at
all.
All in all I've got no one and nobody gots me.
And due to excessive shoe loss,
yeah, they're falling off, they're falling off.
Without further adieu, I'm-a stop it all with signs and
everything and all.
If you didn't want to be here you shouldn't have come
at all.
WE'RE GONNA HAVE A BALL.
And if you don't come it's your loss.
Shake it from side to side.
This is Mexico and from here on out it's a no holds
barred.
See he's already in.
I've lost all momentum to attempt to have half of a
conversation with you.
But this is nothing new.
But this is nothing.
You're the worst thing that's happened to me and if I
was lying maybe we could agree to disagree.
"We're not working out"...
"I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I know, I
know..."
Abrupt pause. "I know." ,
"I'll walk you out"... I'm on my way right now. We've
got to find that horse.
Well, let's go, where's your seatbelt? Let's grow, mi
dos.
Grow up? I've neglected to mention there's a hole in my
boat, we're not going anywhere.
You're still on mute, I'm a mime.
They call me Luke, It's short for Leukemia.
You keep getting louder.
I'm not accusing you, I'm just saying It's all your
fault.
You put the 'cool' in alcohol, and I've lost all
momentum to try to speak to you.
Alas, my fingers hurt from snapping, so, you better
stay on beat.
I'm lost and you know exactly where to find me, on and
on ...so wrong.
Silly girl, tricks are for kids, where's your tricks
now?
