Visit the Delphi

Delphi, one of many UNESCO World Heritage Sites in Greece, is a tremendously well-liked tourist destination, and it's easy to see why once you go. Delphi, which is located on Mount Parnassus's flanks, was formerly a well-traveled pilgrimage site for people who came there to pay respects to Apollo, the ancient Greek god of healing, music, light and prophesy.


Nowadays, you may discover temples, a spectacular stadium, a theater, and charming historical remains. Followers would travel here to seek wisdom from the Oracle at Delphi.


The Delphi Ruins are one of the most renowned ancient sites and the most important shrine in Greece. It served as a historic place of worship for the Greek deity Apollo. The sanctuary, which was which historians believe dates back to 1400 B.C., housed the Oracle of Delphi and the priestess Pythia.

These archeological ruins have major historical significance, as it is where ancient Greeks would come to seek counsel with the Oracle at Delphi. The site’s remains are nestled in Mount Parnassus, west of Athens.


Location: between two towering rocks of Mt. Parnassus, known as the Phaidriades (Shining) Rocks, in the Regional unit of Phocis in Central Greece.
