Tasso's village in Greece.
My village is called Kerastari and it is located
almost precisely in the middle of Peloponisos (Southern part of
mainland Greece). It is not marked in most maps. It is about 200 kms
SW of Athens, near the provincial town of Tripolis. On a map it is 4 km
north of the main road connecting Tripolis and Megalopolis and the
turnoff is at a distance of 22.5km from Tripolis and 10.5km from
Megalopolis. It is also near (about 8 kms) the train station at Asea.
On the atlas map the village is at coordinates of 22.22 degrees (22 deg
13 mins) East longitude and 37.45 degrees (37 deg 27 mins) North
latitude. It is at an elevation of about 1000 m above sea level. The
sea is about 60 kms by road, almost in any direction. However, that is
about a couple of hours by car.
Note: More to come, including maps and pictures. Please be patient!
