How close does the game get to the real place?
In the game
The sacred sanctuary on the slopes of Mount Parnassos where Kassandra consults the Pythia, the oracle of Apollo, in the game's opening chapters.
The real place
Delphi was the most important oracle of the Greek world. The real site keeps the Temple of Apollo's foundations, the theatre and the rebuilt Athenian Treasury, all in the photo, on a dramatic mountainside above the Pleistos valley.
Visiting
Delphi is about two and a half hours from Athens by car or bus. Go early to beat the coach tours, and visit the museum for the bronze Charioteer.
