The latter is famous for its colourful rugs and carpets, and
here we will make a short stop in this picturesque mountain
village, which is also a winter resort for skiers and is built
on the southern slopes of mount Parnassus.
Breathtaking scenery!
We visit the sanctuary of Apollo Pithier, the treasury of the Athenians,
the temple of Apollo and the museum, which contains masterpieces of ancient
Greek sculpture such as the bronze charioteer and the famous athlete Aghias.
If there is time left, we will have the opportunity to see the spring of Castalia
and the sanctuary of Athena Pronea. |
The temple of Apollo |
The bronze charioteer |
Delphi was believed to be the centre of the ancient world-
the “Omphalos" (Navel) of the earth, whose prestige
extended far beyond the boundaries of the Hellenic World.
After a nice meal, we take the road back to Athens, driving through the cotton
fields of Boeotia.
A dream-trip to the "Oracle of Delphi" and the
home of the god Apollo! |
