SMUS goes to the Apollo's temple.

After getting ready in the morning, we headed off to Apollo's temple (it was a long drive up the mountain). When we got there, the temple was mostly covered with huge white tents. Yanni told us myths and stories around this area and about Apollo. He told us about how on the summer solstice, the sun lined up with the statue inside the temple and, how most Greek structures follow the x+1 rule (x being how many pillars at the front and back).  When we finally headed in, it was beautiful. There were Doric columns, and the entire building was way more than three times anybody here's height. There was a closed off section at the back, which they were reconstructing the temple in. We did not get to see most of the reconstruction save for a window in the wall. There were tiny little lizards climbing on and in the temple of Apollo. We then biked down to the River Neda, but that's for another post.
