Explore Ancient Olympia
Ancient Olympia, in the green valley of the Alfeios river in western Peloponnese, is the birthplace of the Olympic Games. The sanctuary of Zeus, the ancient stadium and one of the finest museums in Greece are a short walk from the village, and the beaches of Ilia and the Ionian coast are within an hour.
