The Temple of Apollo Epicurus in Basai, located deep in the Arcadia peaks, at an altitude of 1130 meters, is definitely the most difficult place to find on this trip. It is about two hours drive from Olympia and the whole mountain road. The temple, which remains to this day, was designed and built by Ictinos, the architect of the fifth century BC. The cause was a plague outbreak in 420 BC, and local residents built the temple named after Apollo as a memorial to thank the doctor who saved their lives, Epicurus. For thousands of years, the temple was forgotten because of its remote location, and it has been preserved so well. In 1765, a French architect rediscovered it. Excavations began in 1836. Today, some French people are renovating the temple, which was listed on the World Heritage List in 1986, even earlier than the Acropolis. A giant canopy has been built outside the temple today. Although not as spectacular as it was, it is the best protection for this 2,500-year-old giant building.

Come here, every angle is a scenic spot that has finished visiting Coroni, and I decided to find a quiet natural location, so I came to Murrin Povincial Park with my friends. Its location is relatively remote, so there are not too many tourists. The play process walked into a wide forest avenue, the roadside was placed for tourists to rest and picnic tables and chairs, did not see any garbage, relatively clean. The roadside grew next to the compact and upright trees. The thick leaves covered the hot sun, the road was mottled and sparse shadow, walking under the tree, very cool, the whole person relaxed and happy. I then went up a winding uphill road, and finally came to the end of the road, and a large open blue lake was exposed. The sun was shining on the lake and the water flowed. I looked up at the rolling hillside and couldn't see the end. Climb up a big rock in front of you, stand on it, breathe a warm breeze, purify the heart and lungs, feel the body is lighter. Going to another place around the lake road, walking at different angles, you can always find different beauty in surprise. The random shooting is a fixed picture of nature. Warm reminder to avoid getting lost, see the guide sign. Trees are dense, don't use fire.
