- Ancient Olympic Stadium - Rhodes - Olympia is renowned as the birthplace of the most celebrated and significant sporting event of the ancient world. The Olympic Games were held here every four years from 776 BC to 393 AD. This site was also a sacred place dedicated to the Greek god Zeus from around the 10th century BC. Visitors can admire remarkable sculptures such as the temple of Zeus’s decorations, the renowned Hermes of Praxiteles, and the statue of Nike of Paionios. The Olympic Games, the most celebrated sporting event of the ancient world, honored the finest athletes. This tradition endures today, nearly 3,000 years later. However, Olympia was not only used every four years to celebrate human achievements. It was also a hub for creating and sharing extraordinary works of art and culture in worship of Zeus. This blend of history and the shaping of modernity makes this site truly special. In ancient Greece, the Olympic Games were about more than just sports.
- Corinth Canal - The Corinth Canal is a waterway that traverses the narrow isthmus of Corinth, connecting the Gulf of Corinth to the Saronic Gulf. This canal effectively separates the Greek mainland from the Peloponnese, transforming it into an island. Although completed in the late 19th century, the canal was a dream over 2000 years old. Before its construction, ships in the Aegean Sea wishing to cross to the Adriatic or dock in Corinth, a prosperous shipping city, had to navigate around the Peloponnese, adding an extra 185 nautical miles to their journey. It is believed that Periander, the tyrant of Corinth (602 BC), was the first to envision the Corinth Canal. Due to the project’s complexity and the limited technical capabilities of the era, Periander built the diolkos, a stone road that allowed ships to be transported on wheeled platforms.
