The temple of Apollo! I so want to go there. I have heard so much about the place. My archeology teacher told me that way back when the oracle of Delphi was still there, there was some sort of gas seeping out jof a fissure in the ground. The priestess or oracle would breath in that "magical mist." She would go into a trance and start spouting nonsensical words that were then "translated" by someone else as a message from olympus for the people who came for direction.

Thanks,


Yes, it is great to be there in person. It was rather warm, but quite impressive. There are many more very impressive Greek sites, so if you get the chance, don't hessitate to visit Greece!

Don't go in the middle of summer though, unless you like temperature way over 30 Celcius (or stay at the beach; there is lots and lots of beach in Greece!)

Good luck!
