On Monday morning departure from the center of Athens in the direction of Delphi - a symbol of poetry, the seat of the mythical muses (Mount Parnassus), the center of the ancient Greek world and the cult of Apollo (god of sunlight and patron of the arts). Everyone tried to get to the foot of the mountain to receive the oracle’s prediction. Here is the “navel of the earth”, designated by Zeus as the center of the world. At that time, the famous Pythian Games were held here - theatrical holidays in honor of the victory of Apollo over the serpent Python. In Delphi, you have the chance to observe a natural phenomenon called the Delphic Echo, which sounds much louder than the original sound. Delphi is included in the World Cultural Heritage List.
