Loutraki-Perachora (Greek: Λουτράκι-Περαχώρα) is a former municipality in Corinthia, Peloponnese, Greece. Since the 2011 local governmental reform it is part of the municipality Loutraki-Perachora-Agioi Theodoroi, of which it is a municipal unit.〔(Kallikratis law ) Greece Ministry of Interior 〕 The region of Loutraki-Perachora is a very important tourist destination for summer and weekend visitors from the Athens metropolitan area, due to its proximity (about 80 km) and the clean and sandy beaches surrounding the town of Loutraki and other seaside settlements. The area is also famous for the Heraion of Perachora (sanctuary of the goddess Hera), an archaeological site of significance located at the end of the Perachora peninsula. ==Loutraki== (詳細はLoutraki, the most important settlement and the seat of the municipality, is a seaside town with a population of 11,383 inhabitants (2001 census), famous for its natural beauty, spas and mineral water springs. Recently one of the biggest casinos in Europe has been built in Loutraki. A modern convention center has opened gates and a marina is also planned. Loutraki sometimes is perceived as the last boundary of the Athens metropolitan area. Many Athenians live in the community permanently or seasonally. The municipality lies on both sides of the Corinth Canal, but primarily to its northeast; a small part lies on the southwest side of the canal, on the Peloponnese Peninsula. (map ) The Corinth Canal is a partial border between the Corinthian Community and the Loutraki-Perachora Community. The Canal area, however, is the responsibility of the latter. A privately owned company operates ship traffic on the canal. Loutraki's springs of mineral water are very well known for their exceptional qualities. A significant bottling industry has been developed due to this fact. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Loutraki-Perachora」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
