Delphi

Day 5 Visit to the Sanctuary of Apollo at Delphi.

This is the treasury of Athens...



This is the rock of the Sibyl, otherwise known as the oracle of Delphi. I asked my question here. Behind are the pillars of the temple of Apollo...


Here is the navel of the universe...


He is in the museum....


This is Hadrian's boy Antinous. He shows up wherever you go, this time in the museum at Delphi. We also saw him at the archeological museum in Athens...
