Delphi

Delphi is a well-preserved archaeological site on mainland Greece that contains the remnants of one of antiquity's most important communities. The 'bellybutton of the ancient world', as it is known. Many of the sites in Delphi date from the 5th century BC, but the Romans repaired and changed many of them. Many of the structures were also damaged or destroyed as a result of fires and earthquakes. Walking through Delphi, however, provides an interesting glimpse into the lives of the city's past residents.

Delphi - one of the most beautiful historical sites in Greece, was classified as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. It is still one of Greece's most famous tourist destinations, nestled in the gorgeous Pleistos Valley. As the path zigzags up the side of Mount Parnassus, leading visitors past a variety of stunning remains, visitors can experience firsthand the ancient settlement's almost "multi-layered” character. From the Temple of Apollo to the mountaintop stadium, there's a lot to see.
