Trip to Delos
Trip to Delos, the sacred island no one is allowed to live on. According to ancient Greek mythology, Apollo and his sister Artemis were born on this island... What is left from ca. 500 B.C. are the remains of a once glorious city - in those times, about 30,000 people, from different religious backgrounds, all lived in harmony (as well as thousands of slaves...). Until Delos was attacked and looted by pirates and gradually abandoned.
