The glorious Itea Bay is the port of entry if you’re headed for Delphi, at the foot of Mount Parnassus in central Greece. Here you’ll find one of the ancient wonders of classical Greece. Just a short drive away from the bay is the Sacred Way and the famous Shrine of Delphi, where the mythological Oracle was said to tell the future.

Have a look at the Omphalos, “the belly button of the Earth,” as ancient Greeks believed (it’s pictured on the next page). To them, Delphi was the center of the world. Do not miss a visit to the Delphi Museum where among other spectacles is an impressive bronze charioteer.
