The Corinth Canal is a remarkable engineering feat in Greece, connecting the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf through the Isthmus of Corinth. Although the idea dates back to the seventh century BC, it wasn’t realized until the late 19th century. Today, it serves more as a tourist attraction than a commercial waterway, with its narrow path challenging modern navigation but offering a unique spectacle for visitors.
