You step out of the air-conditioned sedan and wind hits your face—cold, mountain air that seems to push the ruins into sharper relief. The ruins of Delphi perch on the slopes of Mount Parnassus; the valley below opens like a long breath toward the Gulf of Corinth. Stone underfoot, distant gull calls, and the slow click of cameras mark a day that moves from alpine lanes to quiet tide.
