The municipality consists of the communities Saint- Va-silios, Arahovitika, Drepano, Psathopyrgos, Sella, Platanni, Kastritsi, Argira, Rodini, Magula. In antiquity there used to be a city named Riowhich was dedicated to god Poseidon. Bars, clubs, restaurants that serve multicultural dishes, tavernas and the casino in Rio give away a cosmopolitan way of life, while you will find super luxurious hotels for your accomodation in this city. The port is big and very important. Here we will find one of the most futuristic giant public serving works in Greece, the bridge that connects Peloponnisos with Central Greece, the building of which made the communication as well as the tralsportation much easier and faster. The side across the Rio bridge is called anti-Rio and on both sides there are two twin castles standingWalk on the marina of the port to watch the combination of the sunset and the bridge and sit to one of the café-bars to enjoy your drinks.
