- Ancient Agora of Athens - Start your journey at the Agora, the lively core of ancient Athens. This was the hub for politics, commerce, social activities, and religion. When the Apostle Paul arrived in Athens, he visited this place to engage with philosophers and intellectuals, sharing the message of Christianity amidst the vibrant debates and cultural exchanges that characterized this historic meeting spot.
- Areopagus - Located just northwest of the Acropolis, the Areopagus is a marble hill that served as a judicial and political meeting place in ancient Athens. During Apostle Paul’s visit, it was also a famous venue for intellectual debate and discussion. The council here, consisting of 100 members including philosophers, scholars, and former officials, listened as Paul delivered his message, marking a significant moment in the spread of Christianity.
- Agios Dionysios Areopagitis Church - Visit the Church of Saint Dionysius the Areopagite, situated in the upscale Kolonaki district on Skoufa Street. Dedicated to Athens’ patron saint, Dionysius was famously converted to Christianity by the Apostle Paul and became the city’s first bishop. The church stands as a tribute to his lasting legacy and the early Christian roots of Athens.
- Corinth Canal - Journey to the impressive Corinth Canal, an engineering marvel that cuts through the narrow Isthmus of Corinth, linking the Gulf of Corinth with the Saronic Gulf. This canal separates the Peloponnese from mainland Greece, effectively turning the peninsula into an island. Although constructed long after biblical times, the canal underscores the strategic importance of this region.
- Ancient Port of Kenchreai - Proceed to the site of ancient Kechrees, Corinth’s eastern port and a crucial hub of trade and travel, especially during the Roman era. Although much of the port is submerged or in ruins, remnants of Roman engineering are still visible—storerooms, breakwaters, a nymphaeum, sanctuaries, and an early Christian basilica from the 4th century A.D. This is also where the Apostle Paul arrived in 51 A.D., commencing his mission in Corinth. The blend of commercial, religious, and historical layers here paints a vivid picture of a once-thriving harbor town.
- Ancient Corinth (Archaia Korinthos) - Enter the heart of Ancient Corinth, one of the most powerful and prosperous cities of the classical world. For Christian visitors, this site holds special significance: at the Bema, a raised platform in the center of the city, Paul is believed to have addressed the local community and stood trial before the Roman proconsul. Nearby, the Agora—the bustling marketplace—evokes the everyday life of the Corinthians Paul wrote to. Amid the ruins, the impressive Temple of Apollo stands as a reminder of the city’s long and complex religious history.
- Archaeological Museum of Corinth - Before concluding your visit, explore the Museum of Ancient Corinth, established in 1932 to preserve the remarkable artifacts uncovered from the area. The museum offers rich insights into Corinth’s extensive history, featuring prehistoric treasures and finds from the Sanctuary of Asklepios. Its thoughtfully arranged exhibits illuminate the daily life, religious practices, and artistic achievements of the city, perfectly complementing your experience of the archaeological site.
- Acrocorinth - Conclude your tour at Acrocorinth, the imposing acropolis that protected ancient Corinth through centuries of history. This fortified hilltop was not only a military stronghold but also a religious center, home to the famous Temple of Aphrodite, which was said to have housed up to 1,000 priestesses. As you explore the ruins and take in panoramic views of the surrounding landscape, reflect on the rich blend of faith, power, and culture that shaped the region throughout the ages.
