Delos Archaeological Site

Delos is one of the most important archaeological sites in Greece and the Mediterranean, a tiny uninhabited island in the Cyclades that was the sacred birthplace of Apollo and Artemis and consequently one of the ancient Greek world's most important religious and commercial centers. The island's extensive ruins — including a famous terrace of lion statues, a vast commercial agora, residential quarters with intricate mosaic floors, and the Temple of Apollo — are visited by boat from Mykonos and offer one of the most significant encounters with ancient Greek civilization.

Delos Island

Delos Island in the Cyclades was the most sacred site in the ancient Greek world, the legendary birthplace of the twin deities Apollo and Artemis, and by the 2nd century BC the busiest port in the Mediterranean. Today uninhabited and entirely preserved as an open-air archaeological museum, its marble streets, sanctuaries, and merchant's warehouses make it one of the most complete ancient Greek commercial cities in existence. Access is by short boat from Mykonos, making it the most significant cultural excursion from that island.
