Delphi is a modern town in Greece which is famous for its
archaeological site in the valley of Phocis, among other things. The
city is located in the center of Greece on the terraces that border the
slope of Mount Parnassus. It also includes the Sanctuary of Apollo, a
place where the ancient Oracle once lived. It was the place of the
Delphic Oracle in Greek mythology when the main god of worship was
Apollo. It is a site that is a must view for those who have always been
influenced by the charm of the Oracle. The history shows that Delphi was
populated during the Neolithic era.
During 100 B.C., Delphi became an important center for religious and political activities. While the exact function of the Oracle cannot be found in any of the prehistoric documents, the importance of Delphi has been well-documented.
Delphi of Greece was considered to be the center of the world and the Oracle was a religious naval that was famous for predicting the future. Since the Oracle could predict the future, most of the kings and common people used to consult the Oracle on matters that were of great importance. These matters would include things like small house hold disputes to big war conditions. Because of its future telling capabilities, it created a name and a reputation of its own not just in Greece but in the entire world. Some of the common sites to visit in Delphi include the famous temple of Apollo, the Tholos, the Delphi Museum and the Charioteer of Delphi. The drive to Delphi from Athens is almost 90 minutes. One can reach Delphi by air or road.
