Delphi

We took a bus trip today to Delphi.  Weather is cold and raining which is such a shame when we climbed high up into the mountains from Athens.

178km north west of Athens is Delphi.  The city was most popular between the 6th and 4th Centuries BC when pilgrims came to this place high in the mountains to ask advice of an oracle who was believed to speak for Apollo. Built on the slope of Mt Parnassos ancient Greeks believed Delphi to be the centre of the universe.
