Defil. Legend has it that Zeus released two eagles, each flying east and west, and finally meets in Defil, the center of the world. Another miracle is the shrine of Apollo, which can be verified by the relics of the existing Apollo and Athena sacred areas!

The Pan-Greek Holy Land is a complex structure outside the politics of the city-state, the only way to provide self-knowledge to all Greeks in a religious sense, and the motto "know yourself" is said to be engraved on the entrance to the temple of Apollo. Apollo worship gained a high reputation between the mid-8th and mid-7th centuries BC as patron of the then-fierce colonial cause. In 373 BC, an earthquake severely damaged the Holy Land's buildings and played a decisive role in its fate. It was during the second half of the fourth century that the Holy Land was gradually declining as Greece experienced political turmoil, and since Roman rule in the first century AD no new buildings have emerged. In 392, Roman Emperor Theodosius I issued a decree banning paganism, marking the end of the Apollo cult. The site of the Holy Land was occupied by a village in early AD and rediscovered in the 15th century. The operation of the shrine has undergone many changes in history, according to Prutak, one of the most authoritative witnesses, who was once a priest of the temple, and there was only one female prophet in the temple during his time (1st century AD), who was asked once a month; Earlier, the ritual was in full swing, requiring three priestesses to take turns to cope with the long line of requests. In another temple in Apollo, the oracle was only passed on through thought to the prophet's spirit, which made him/her likely to play more freely. In Christian times, Chrysostom believed that Pitia was a woman possessed by the devil, drilling into the prophecy woman from the depths of the strata beneath the tripod. Every year, when Apollo leaves, there is naturally no shrine, which causes countless believers to wait when the shrine reopens every year. So the priests of the temple have the right to arrange priority for the ceremony (Προμαντεία / promanteia). Participants first offered a proper gift to God, then the priest poured cold water on a goat, and if it did not shudder, it would not be considered an ominous sign; If the worshiper is accepted, the goat will be offered, and he can enter the temple to ask the female prophet a question, of course, whether the question is answered depends on God's will.

The site is a very interesting and good place. The historical traces here are obvious. You can see a lot of ancient Greek civilization's historical origin. The interior of the goddess' temple is also broken and leftover, and many columns are incomplete.

The mountain of the natural hot springs is a continuation of the spirit of Sparta. The epitaph of the Sparta warrior reads: "Passing by, please go back and tell the Sparta people that we are determined to die and finally sleep in Sparta." Greece Athens 210 kilometers north, there is a place called the hot spring gate, have you heard that there has been a famous battle hot spring gate battle. It is said that in 480 BC, Persian king Xerxes led the army to invade Greece. The ancient Greek Sparta 300 warriors and tens of thousands of Persian troops died in the hot spring Guan battle, and finally outnumbered the people, but the Sparta warriors would rather die than fall, swear to coexist with the position, do not retreat or yield, with life to protect the promise, and finally all died in the hot spring Guan. The hot spring gate is located in the mountains, on the left is the alpine cliff, on the right is the cliff sea, which also hides a natural sulfur hot spring, sulfur hot spring has a medical effect, has many benefits for skin health. About 2 and a half hours from Athens, reach the hot spring gate, pass the Sparta Warrior Monument first, and then arrive at the hot spring in a few minutes. The hot spring is a free attraction, no tickets and no public facilities, and there is a free campground nearby. If Alahova is only an hour's drive away after snow skiing, it is a great winter trip to soak in a hot spring after snow skiing. If you have enough time and don’t rush to the next destination, you can eat and stay in the nearby Lamia at night. Although Lamia is not a famous tourist resort, it is also a medium-sized city in the middle. Accommodation is very cheap. It is recommended to find a hotel in the city. During the day, you can go to Lamia Castle to overlook the city, and you can stroll around the city at night, which is very convenient.
