This is a holy place in ancient Greece. The earliest relics began in 2000 BC and 1600 BC. Religious buildings began about 1,000 BC. From the 8th to the end of the 4th century BC, it is famous for hosting sports festivals to the main god of Zeus and is the birthplace of the Olympic Games. In this ancient land, it is really amazing to feel the pavilion runway and blessing platform of people nearly 4,000 years ago. Hermes can be regarded as the world's top cultural relics, the treasure of the town hall, but here itself is a big baby

The Temple of Apollo Epicurus in Basai, located deep in the Arcadia peaks, at an altitude of 1130 meters, is definitely the most difficult place to find on this trip. It is about two hours drive from Olympia and the whole mountain road. The temple, which remains to this day, was designed and built by Ictinos, the architect of the fifth century BC. The cause was a plague outbreak in 420 BC, and local residents built the temple named after Apollo as a memorial to thank the doctor who saved their lives, Epicurus. For thousands of years, the temple was forgotten because of its remote location, and it has been preserved so well. In 1765, a French architect rediscovered it. Excavations began in 1836. Today, some French people are renovating the temple, which was listed on the World Heritage List in 1986, even earlier than the Acropolis. A giant canopy has been built outside the temple today. Although not as spectacular as it was, it is the best protection for this 2,500-year-old giant building.

Zakinzos Venetian castle city has a centuries-old castle, he is located in the mountains of Zakinzos Heights, condescending, the view is very wide. It used to be the palace of the royal family. It is relatively intact. There are many noble objects inside. It is now a museum. The viewing platform at the mouth is very beautiful and definitely worth seeing.
