The Leonidas Monument commemorates the battle in 480 BC in which a small band of about 300 Spartan soldiers held off a huge Persian army for three days.
Battlefield of Thermopylae is the land surface on which the famous battle was fought in 480 BC.Where the Spartans made their last stand with the body of their King Leonidas against Xerxes and his Persian army.
Thermopylae can be translated as ‘Hot Gates’, a reference to the volcanic hot springs near this Greek town. Directly opposite the monument of Leonidas of Sparta is a volcanic area with several of sulfur hot springs. According to the Ancient Greeks, these springs were believed to be a gateway to the Underworld (Hades). It is further mentioned in Ancient Greek Mythology as the place where the Greek hero Heracles washed off the poison from his legendary battle with the Hydra, thus turning the waters into hot springs.
The Temple of Apollo is the most important building in the sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi. In the centre stands the temenos, the most outstanding feature of the temple. It is famous for the oracle that resided in it, where pilgrims from all over the world would come to have their fortunes told.

About Athens
Athens sets the Acropolis above a sprawling modern capital, where ancient ruins, hillside lanes and long taverna evenings sit side by side.
The Parthenon crowns the Acropolis, flanked by the Erechtheion and its porch of caryatids, and the Acropolis Museum at the foot of the hill displays sculpture found on the rock. Around it, the Ancient Agora, the Temple of Olympian Zeus, Hadrian's Arch and the marble Panathenaic Stadium make the classical city easy to walk through.
Top-ranked sights in Athens: Acropolis, Parthenon, Acropolis Museum.
