Leonidas Monument

Leonidas was a king of the Greek city-state of Sparta. His contribution to the second Persian war was really crucial for Sparta's name and fame. More specifically, he led the allied Greek forces to a last stand at the Battle of Thermopylae (480 BC) while attempting to defend the pass from the invading Persian army; he died at the battle and entered myth as the leader of the 300 Spartans. While the Greeks lost this battle, they were able to expel the Persian invaders in the following year.

Temple of Apollo

Apollo was the god of Harmony, music, light, healing and oracles! The famous oracle, the Pythia, operated inside the temple, the location chosen, according to one tradition, due to a sacred chasm beneath the site emitting vapors, which were inhaled by the Pythia. By watching the temple you will basically meet the place where the oracles took place and experience the area where a lot of Generals and Kings were seeking answers for wars and leadership.
