Tripoli Attractions

Trípoli, capital of Arcadia, on the central Arcadian plateau, was founded in the 14th century by settlers from Albania. During the Turkish period, under the name of Tripolitsa, it was the seat of the Pasha of the Morea. The town was captured by Kolokotronis in 1821, but was destroyed by Ibrahim Pasha in 1828. Trípoli, situated at the intersection of the principal roads through the Peloponnese, is now the center of the surrounding agricultural region.
