History
Delphi was the religious center of ancient Greece and home to the Pythia oracle; Meteora’s monasteries grew from 9th-century hermit settlements atop sandstone pillars formed by millennia of erosion.
Conservation
High visitor numbers strain fragile paths and monastery access; follow designated trails, respect religious sites, and avoid feeding wildlife to minimize impact.

Long transfers and open summits mean you should carry at least 1–2 liters per person, more in summer.
