Delphi (Ancient Sanctuary)

The Delphi (Ancient Sanctuary) was a sacred site in Greece, famous for its Temple of Apollo and the Oracle of Delphi. It was considered the spiritual center of the Greek world, where people sought divine guidance and prophetic insights. The Oracle, a priestess known as the Pythia, would enter a trance and deliver cryptic messages believed to be spoken directly from the gods. Pilgrims from across Greece and beyond visited Delphi for consultation on important decisions, political matters, and future events. The site also hosted athletic and cultural festivals, highlighting its significance in ancient Greek religion and society.
