Ablauf

1. Arrive in Delphi, and visit the famous theatre, where you will enjoy spectacular views of the surrounding mountains, and get an insight into the world of the Ancient Greeks. Visit the Temple of Apollo, the center of Ancient Greece, and best-known for its famous oracle. The Oracle of Delphi was ancient Greece's most important religious sanctuary, dedicated to Apollo, where the priestess Pythia delivered cryptic prophecies from the Temple of Apollo on Mount Parnassus, influencing major political and personal decisions across the ancient world for centuries. Regarded as the "omphalos" (navel of the world), its pronouncements, often ambiguous and interpreted by supplicants, guided everything from war to colonization, solidifying Delphi as a center for spiritual and intellectual life until its decline with the rise of Christianity.

About Athen

Athen stellt die Akropolis über eine weitläufige moderne Hauptstadt, in der antike Ruinen, Hanggassen und lange Taverna-Abende nebeneinander bestehen.

Der Parthenon krönt die Akropolis, flankiert vom Erechtheion mit seiner Korenhalle, und das Akropolis-Museum am Fuß des Hügels zeigt die auf dem Felsen gefundenen Skulpturen. Rundherum machen die antike Agora, der Tempel des Olympischen Zeus, der Hadriansbogen und das marmorne Panathenäische Stadion die klassische Stadt leicht zu Fuß erkundbar.
