Ancient Olympia is a place of worship for Olympian Zeus. This is the birthplace and venue of the Olympic Games; the symbol of the ancient Hellenes as a nation; a symbol of peace and tranquility; a symbol of the physical and moral perfection of a man.
During the time of the Olympic Games in Ancient Hellas wars and all hostility ceased. The ancient Greeks kept their chronology over the years of the Olympics.

Sacred fire was lit here long before the famous sanctuaries of Hera and Zeus were created. It was in Olympia that one of the seven wonders of the world was located - a statue of "Olympian Zeus" by master Phidias. Another statue - "Hermes with the baby Dionysus in her arms" by Praxiteles, recognized as a masterpiece of the ancient world, is kept in the Archaeological Museum of Ancient Olympia.

Today, Ancient Olympia is a peaceful place surrounded by pines and plane trees, where temples, a gymnasium and a stadium where almost 3,000 years later during the 2004 Olympic Games athletics competitions were held., are preserved.
