Archaeological Site of Delphi

Delphi (Delfí), lying on the slopes of Mount Parnassus high above the Gulf of Corinth, is one of the most famous historic sites in Greece, known throughout the ancient Greek world and beyond as the sanctuary of Apollo and the shrine of his oracle.

Ancient Greeks believed that Delphi was the Navel of the Earth, a place seen as a spiritual focal point for all Greeks; it included many sanctuaries and the most prestigious oracle in all of ancient Greece. This is where Pythia, the high priestess, uttered the divine advice of God Apollo to mortals who travelled from across the world to seek a prophecy. Apart from Greeks, the Oracle was visited also by foreign leaders and dignitaries who were anxious to know the will of Apollo on important state affairs.

Today a UNESCO World Heritage Site, Delphi ranks on par with the Acropolis in Athens; Olympia; and the island of Delos as top tourist attractions of the Classical period of ancient Greece. Its wealth of archaeological treasures combines with its magnificent mountain setting and its importance in Greek mythology to make Delphi one of the most awe-inspiring places to visit in Greece.
