One needs 3 days just to cross Mani, 3 months to wander around it and 3 lives to understand its soul. One life will be spend to investigate its sea, one  to get  its mountains and one to get to know its people.

Here one can find information on Mani that was collected by a Maniot, who was born in this beautiful place and though lives now in Athens, never stopped to have closest links with his Motherland...

Here, up to the Mani Mountains
Came ancient Spartans and
Now these people are called Maniots
To save their honor and freedom
They built cities up in the mountains
And lots of villages.
                                     (Nifakos, poet)
