|  | Thermopylae ("hot gateway") is a location in Greece where a narrow coastal passage existed in antiquity. It derives its name from several natural hot water springs.

Yeah, I remember the history and the old movie... Thanks for reminding me of that place! So many must'see activities in Greece... | tiabunna Thu Aug 14, 2008 08:14 UTC
What an interesting and historic spot to visit! A pity though, that pedestrians cannot cross the (inevitable) road through the pass. | Bwana_Brown Tue Jun 24, 2008 02:16 UTC
Ah yes, what boy never heard of the famous Battle of Thermopylae!! It must have been nice to actually visit the famous site yourself! Too bad about the highway cutting it in half though. |
