Surely it must have been a really impressive building in its time. It's the place where they worshipped the god who was giving the power to Pythia to make predictions .

Temple of Apollo. This is the site where the god Apollo was believed to be born alongside his twin sister Artemis. Lovely site

Michael J Robey

It is an imposing temple of the Doric order whose existence was woven through the turbulent history of the site, and endured numerous incarnations before it settled to the ruinous state we find it tod

It is all free on Sunday! You can enter into museum , apollon site and gymnasium w/o entrance fee on Sunday. And its always free the Athenas pronaias site on any day.

Delphi was considered by the ancients to be the center (Omphalos = navel) of the world, and the oracle of Delphi was a religious center, most famous for its accurate predictions of the future.
