Ancient Olympia Day Trip from Athens

syntagma
Price level: mid

A three-and-a-half-hour drive to the birthplace of the Olympic Games — the Temple of Zeus, the original stadium where 40,000 spectators watched, the workshop of Pheidias, and the Archaeological Museum with the original Hermes of Praxiteles. The torch is still lit here for every modern Games.
