This guide is not an official tourism body. The texts were written from public sources, which are listed at the bottom of each page.

Where the facts come from

The main sources are the tourist guide of the Municipality of Arta (Discover Arta), articles of the Greek and English Wikipedia, an article by CNN Greece and the page This is Epirus. For events the municipality's website and local media were used, with the date of checking on the page.

When sources disagree

In many places the sources give different figures or dates, for example for the bridge, the Parigoritissa, the length of the Arachthos and the birthplace of Karaiskakis. In such cases the page gives both versions or says the date is an estimate.

What has not been checked

The English, Italian and German translations have not been checked by native speakers. Distances and opening hours are not calculated; ask locally. The map is schematic. Historical information has not been cross-checked against archaeological publications.
