Delphi is one of the most important and interesting archaeological sites in Greece. Sitting on the slopes of Mount Parnassus, Delphi boasts an amazing natural landscape that highlights the historical significance of the place.
Delphi is famous for one thing in particular: it is home to the world-famous oracle of Delphi. This oracle was renowned in Ancient Greece, as pilgrims from all over the Mediterranean would visit it to receive the prophecies of the ancient Greek god Apollo. The prophecies were delivered by Apollo through the words of Pythia, the high-priestess of his temple.
According to the myth, which the scientists have also confirmed, Delphi is the navel of the Earth, meaning it is the central point of planet Earth. As time went on, apart from a religious sanctuary, Delphi Greece also became the base of a political and military association.
