Achilles Palace is located on the island of Corfu in northwestern Greece. It was a summer palace built by the Austrian Queen Sissi in 1889-1891 and named after her favorite Greek mythological hero, Achilles. The beautiful white palace is hidden in the green forest. The paintings and sculptures of the war scenes of Achilles and Troy can be seen everywhere in the palace. There are also nine statues of the Muses standing on both sides of the back garden. The garden of the gods is very romantic.
