Archaeological Site of Delphi (Αρχαιολογικός Χώρος Δελφών)
Between the mighty rocks of Fedriad the ancient Greeks marked the center of the world, the "navel of the earth". And for us it is mountain landscapes, the Pythian Games, the famous Oracle and the ruins of the ancient Delphi, which date back to the Mycenaean period. The theatre and stadium, the Temple of Apollo, the Stoia, the altar of black marble, the treasury with the reliefs of the feats of Heracles and Theseus, the tolos-rotunda of Athena Pronoia are examples of the greatest art of the archaic era. And don't forget to wash yourself with the water of the Castal Spring of Eternal Youth (located to the right of the entrance to the arecheological zone, if you stand facing it).

Osios Loukas (Όσιος Λουκάς)
St. Luke's Monastery is famous for its XI century mosaics and is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Founded by a hermit, built and decorated by Constantinople masters and local monks, it was repeatedly looted by the Templar Crusaders, Venetians, Franks, Turks and Albanians, but remains one of the most beautiful monasteries in Greece.
