★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The Castalian spring was the sacred source of Delphi, and its water played an important role in the cult and procedure of the temple and of the oracle. This is where Pythia, the priests and the temple staff washed, and where the water used to clean the temple came from. The theopropoi - those wishing to consult the oracle - were also obliged to wash here in order to purify themselves.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Place with great importance in ancient times. The spring is still running today and you can wash and drink like ancient Greeks did. That's amazing if you think it for a moment

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Though small and appears insignificant it holds great symbolism and history. The water still flows from a small unassuming faucet... Yes it is drinkable I drink face first then filled my water bottle.
The priestess would bath along with the oracle before performing their ceremonies so that the pilgrims could be advised on the future. The bath of fates....

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I can't even begin to tell you about this place, not specifically for the place as to the meaning of this holly fountain. The fountain where the wonders began to take place. Search for the legend, it's worth it
