The ancient civilization of Delphi and Mycenae shows the wisdom and artistic brilliance of the infinite ancients.
At the site of the site, there are only seven columns of different lengths left in the Apollo Temple. The square center of the temple and the Z-shaped "holy road" along the hillside can be seen in the broken columns and tiles. On both sides of the holy road are stables, gift stores and monuments celebrating the holy sites. Finally, there are colonnades and altars, as well as a semicircular open-air theater and stadium that can accommodate 5000 people.
Delphi, located in the northwest of Athens, was a religious shrine in ancient Greece. It is a small town near mountains and rivers, but it has six or seven streets. The famous Apollo Holy Land is on the east side of Delphi, with an altitude of about 300 meters. The Apollo Temple here is a masterpiece of ancient Greek architecture. Standing next to the temple, you can view the panorama of the area. There is a road leading up to the Apollo Temple. When this temple was built, it was considered to be the belly button of the earth.

In Greek mythology, in order to determine the "center of the world", Zeus sent out two eagles from the opposite direction to let them fly in the opposite direction. The place where they met was the "center of the world". Then he appointed Apollo, his favorite son, to manage the center of the world, and gave him an oval stone, making Delphi the origin of the "oracle".
Because of this oracle, Delphi once became a pilgrimage resort of the people and became famous. Later, with the rise of Christianity, the oracle activities were banned, the temple was closed, and Delphi gradually became a ruin.
