Thea-Kallithea (Greek: Καλλιθέα) or Kalithea are two communities of a Patras suburb in the prefecture of Achaia. It is located 8 km S of downtown Patras, 69 km NW of Kalavryta, 136km NW of Tripoli, 92 km ENE of Pyrgos and NE of Olympia. It is the southwestern most city in the Patras metro area. Its population is about 2,000. It is centred by GR-33 at the 8th km. The highway is now bypassed. Arable land dominates the middle, grass, and bushes over the mountain south of Omblos in the east, and trees over the hills in the west. It is in the municipality of Messatidion.
Greece is, of course, the land of ancient sites and architectural treasures--the Acropolis in Athens, the amphitheater of Epidaurus, and the reconstructed palace at Knossos being among the best known.
But Greece is much more: it offers age-old spectacular natural sights, for instance--from Santorini's caldera to the gray pinnacles of rock of the Meteora--and modern diversions ranging from elegant museums to luxury.
Capital of Greece and the countryÂ’s largest city, Athens is dominated by the flat-topped hill of the Acropolis, site of the 2400-year-old Parthenon, one of the most famous classical monuments in the world.
