A journey to the navel of the Earth

Delphi, considered the “navel of the Earth” during antiquity, was a spiritual meeting place for the Greeks, a religious centre with many sanctuaries and the most important oracle of ancient Greece. It was there that Pythia conveyed the oracles of Apollo to the visiting pilgrims, who arrived from Greek regions as well as from foreign lands. 
Very close to the famous archaeological site, which receives hundreds of thousands of visitors every year, lies the modern town of Delphi, which spreads across two streets lined with traditional small houses, hotels and tavernas. The village was relocated to its current spot in 1893, when the site where the hamlet originally stood was expropriated in order to promote the archaeological site.
The area is suitable for peaceful holidays close to nature. This is an ideal combination of the mountain, nature, ancient history and the sea, which is not far away. In the summer, Delphi teems with visitors who spend a few hours before or after their visit to the archaeological site, while in winter it also attracts travellers who wish to ski, as the Parnassos ski resort is located very close by. 
Delphi offers traditional hospitality, local gastronomy and a sense that you are indeed at the centre of the world, as from the mountain you can enjoy a breathtaking view of the sea.
