Beschreibung
Follow in the footsteps of the ancient pilgrims who journeyed to seek wisdom from the mythical Delphic Oracle, the database of the then known world!
Before entering the archaeological site, quench your thirst in the Castalian Spring and learn about the adventures of Apollo, the founder god of the sanctuary. What terrible crime had he committed to be purified here? Continue to the Roman Agora, where the ruins of the ancient shops reveal how thousands of years before you hopped that bus to Parnassus, Delphi had already been a prominent attraction for ancient travelers! The votive offerings, lush memorials and the countless treasures that powerful cities and rulers of proverbial wealth left behind them will haunt your imagination as you stroll along the Sacred way. Admiring in peace the imposing beauty of the Treasury of the Athenians and the Stoa where once important information was posted, you’ll discover that, after all, our forefathers weren’t so different from us now; man’s desire for power and knowledge has long been the linchpin of societies. The Temple of Apollo will cast a spell on you with its mysterious legends. Was Apollo’s Oracle the Google of the ancient world? Let the site give you the answers you’re seeking as you take in the mesmerizing view of the mountainous landscape!
This is an unmissable opportunity to experience at your own pace the spiritual power of Delphi with an immersive audio tour on your phone.
