Apart from beaches, Greece is surely famous for its antiquities.

There are more than 100 famous and less famous archaeological sites all over the country. Ancient Delphi is surely among the most impressive sites and definitely something not to miss in Greece. Spread on the slopes of a mountain in central Greece, Delphi was the sanctuary of god Apollo and the most famous oracle of the Greek antiquity, where pilgrims from all over the Mediterranean basin would come to ask for prophecy.

Today there are ruins of the Temple of Apollo, the Ancient Theatre, the Stadium, the Gymnasium, the Sanctuary of Athena Pronea (Tholos) and others. Right next to the site is a fantastic Archaeological Museum. Delphi can be easily reached by day tour from Athens City (Athina).
