Delphi

Today's small town of Delphi (population 2,300) is now a gathering place for hotels, hostels, restaurants, shops and tourist attractions. It was founded in 1892, when the village of Kastri, which had grown up in the area of ​​the Temple of Apollo, moved to a new location one kilometer west to allow the excavation of the ancient site. This is a good base for exploring the surrounding area.
