Wander through the narrow streets lined with houses decorated with exquisite mosaics and colourful frescoes, and immerse yourself in the bustle of the streets and squares and the vibrant daily life that once reigned here.
Delos was not only a religious centre but also a sanctuary for the arts. As well as the many sculptures on the site, there are sanctuaries dedicated to foreign deities and a well-preserved theatre that will immerse you in the world of ancient entertainment.
Marvel at the tragedies and comedies that marked the life of the Delians at that time. The sacred district, the heart of Delos, contains the remains of the temples of Apollo and Artemis and other amazing buildings.
The remains of the Tetrapylon, the monumental propylaeum marking the entrance to the sanctuary, will give you a sense of the mystical atmosphere of the place and lead you to the sacred lake where, according to legend, Leto gave birth to the divine twins.
