Aside from the Acropolis in Athens, the Temple of Apollo is the most sought after place in Greece due to the Oracle of Delphi which once resided there, answering peoples queries about their fortunes; even today many believe in its divinity and its link to the god Apollo. Visit the Delphi Archaeological Museum to see artifacts discovered at the Oracle of Delphi; a proof that people in those days really believed in the predictions and fortune telling. The argument of it being the center of the earth is moot but Delphi is one Greek town you will not regret visiting.
