Delos is a small island about a 30 minute boat ride from Mykonos. It is the birthplace of Apollo and Artemis. It is an active archaeological site and for as old as it is very well preserved. It was a holy sanctuary and an important religious site to the ancient Greeks. It was a very prosperous island until the 1st century B.C. For more information click here
