Principais pontos turísticos e atrações para montar seus dias depois de saber quando ir.
Delfos
Delfos é uma moderna cidade grega muito conhecida por seu sítio arqueológico, que foi declarado Patrimônio Mundial pela UNESCO. Em épocas antigas, era o local dos Jogos Píticos e de um famoso oráculo, que ficava dentro de um templo dedicado ao deus Apolo, elaborado por Trofônio e Agamedes. Delfos era reverenciado por todo o mundo grego como o omphalos, o centro do universo.
Oráculo de Delfos
Embora estejam atualmente em ruínas, os templos e casas fortes que um dia abrigaram os sacerdotes e sacerdotisas do Oráculo de Delfos, localizado na cidade de Delfos, dentro do conhecido templo de Apolo, da Antiga Grécia.
Templo de Apolo (Delfos)
As ruínas do Templo de Apolo hoje visíveis datam do século IV a. C., e são de um edifício dórico peripteral. Foi erguido por Espíntaro, Xenodoros e Agathon nos restos de um templo anterior, datado do século VI a. C., que por sua vez foi erguido no local de uma construção do século VII a. C. atribuída aos arquitetos Trofônio e Agamedes.
Fonte de Castália
A fonte de Castália era a nascente de água junto a Delfos que, segundo algumas lendas da Antiga Grécia, emitia os vapores alucinógenos que provocavam ao oráculo de Delfos os sonhos e visões que lhe permitiam predizer o futuro. Segundo outras lendas, da fonte apenas jorravam águas puras e cristalinas.
Museu Arqueológico de Delfos
O Museu Arqueológico de Delfos é um dos mais importantes museus da Grécia. Localiza-se nas encostas do Monte Parnaso, no sítio arqueológico das ruínas do Templo de Apolo, onde estava o mais famoso oráculo grego da antiguidade.
Siphnian Treasury
The Siphnian Treasury was a building at the Ancient Greek cult center of Delphi, erected to host the offerings of the polis, or city-state, of Siphnos. It was one of many treasuries lining the "Sacred Way", the processional route through the Sanctuary of Apollo, erected to win the favor of the gods and increase the prestige of the donor polis. It was one of the earliest surviving buildings of this type, and its date remains a matter of debate, with the most plausible date around 525 BC. Until recently, it was often confused or conflated with the neighboring Cnidian Treasury, a similar but less elaborate building, as the remains of the two had become mixed and earlier theoretical reconstructions used parts of both.
Athenian Treasury
The Athenian Treasury at Delphi was constructed by the Athenians to house dedications and votive offerings made by their city and citizens to the sanctuary of Apollo. The entire treasury, including its sculptural decoration, is built of Parian marble. The date of construction is disputed, and scholarly opinions range from 510 to 480 BCE. It is located directly below the Temple of Apollo along the Sacred Way for all visitors to view the Athenian treasury on the way up to the sanctuary.
Crisa
Crissa or Krissa or Crisa or Krisa (Κρῖσα) was a town in ancient Phocis. Crissa was regarded as one of the most ancient cities in Greece. It was situated inland a little southwest of Delphi, at the southern end of a projecting spur of Mount Parnassus. It is mentioned in the Catalogue of Ships in the Iliad as the "divine Crissa". According to the Homeric Hymn to Apollo, it was founded by a colony of Cretans, who were led to the spot by Apollo himself, and whom the god had chosen to be his priests in the sanctuary which he had intended to establish at Pytho. In this hymn, Crissa is described as situated under Parnassus, where no chariots rolled, and no trampling of horses was heard, a description suitable to the site of Crissa upon the rocks. In like manner, Nonnus, following the description of the ancient epic poets, speaks of Crissa as surrounded by rocks. Moreover, the statement of Pindar, that the road to Delphi from the Hippodrome on the coast led over the Crissaean hill, leaves no doubt of the true position of Crissa, since the road from the plain to Delphi must pass by the projecting spur of Parnassus on which the modern village of Chrisso stands. In the Homeric hymn to Apollo, Crissa appears as a powerful place, possessing as its territory the rich plain stretching down to the sea, and also the adjoining sanctuary of Pytho itself, which had not yet become a separate town. In fact, Crissa is in this hymn identified with Delphi. Even in Pindar, the name of Crissa is used as synonymous with Delphi, just as Pisa occurs in the poets as equivalent to Olympia. Metapontium in Magna Graecia is said to have been a colony of Crissa.
Temple of Athena Pronaia
The Temple of Athena Pronaia was a temple at the ancient site of Delphi, in the Sanctuary of Athena Pronaia, a group of buildings comprising temples and treasuries as well as the famous Tholos of Delphi. There were in fact three successive temples built at the site. The earlier temples (38°28′49″N 22°30′30″E), referred to as A and B, were built in the 7th and 6th centuries BC respectively and were made of porous stone; a third temple (38°28′49″N 22°30′28″E) was built of limestone in the 4th century BC, although it is not certain that it actually was dedicated to Athena this time.
Teatro de Delfos
O Teatro de Delfos é um anfiteatro da antiga Delfos, na Grécia, estando localizado no perímetro do sítio arqueológico de Delfos. Foi o local dos concursos e apresentações de música e poesia associados aos Jogos Píticos.
Treasury of the Sicyonians
The Treasury of the Sicyonians is one of the buildings within the sanctuary of Apollo in Delphi. It has a long and complicated history. The treasury itself replaced two former buildings, namely the tholos and the monopteros, built by the same city at an earlier stage within the 6th century. The earlier buildings were related to the Orthagorids of Sicyon and particularly to the victories of the tyrant Cleisthenes of Sicyon in the course of the First Sacred War and their replacement probably marks the change in tide in Sicyonian politics.
stadium of Delphi
The Stadium of Delphi lies on the highest spot of the Archaeological Site of Delphi. It overlooks the sanctuary of Apollo and has a view to the Delphic landscape. It was built either within the second half of the 4th century B.C. or even after the Galatian attacks. Its measured 178 meters in length and knew several refurbishment phases. The Stadium of Delphi is the best preserved ancient stadium in Greece.
