More about: Delphi
Last weekend we went to Arachova and then drove to Delphi, which is about 30 minutes away. The site was not crowded at all. In fact, only a couple of families were there, so we were almost alone. I guess people doesn't like sightseeing in the winter :)) Anyway, the site was interesting, but being a Greek myself, I am used to ancient temples and ruined statues, so I was not that impressed. However, I really liked the museum with the nice organization and the well-cared exhibits. The Sphinx was the most impressive. I didn't know that the ancient Greeks were so influenced by the Egyptians...
