Walk the sacred island of Delos and admire one of the most important
archaeological sites in Greece. In the ancient times, Delos was the sacred
island of god Apollo. The myth says that Leto, the mother of Apollo, gave birth
to him on this island that suddenly emerged from the sea. In fact, the name
Delos means that which emerged. An island with a history of 3,000 years, Delos
was the most important religious centre in the antiquity. The island was not
inhabited but it was frequently visited by pilgrims who were coming here to pay
their respects and give their gifts to god Apollo. Gradually the island also
became a political centre and gave its name to the Delian League, an alliance
of ancient towns with Athens as leader. During your visit on the island, you
can see the temple of Apollo, the famous Lions of Delos, the ancient theatre,
the temple of Leto and many other monuments. Do not also miss the
Archaeological Museum of Delos with all the findings from excavations on the
island. The island of Delos is a very impressive place and is described as an
open archaeological museum. After Delos, we head to Mykonos, one of the most
famous tourist destinations in the world. Have few hours free to walk around
the narrow streets of Mykonos Town, have a relaxing coffee in Little Venice,
see the view from the Windmills and maybe have a quick swim. In the afternoon,
we return to Naxos.
