Aegina is not an accidental island. It constitutes one of the summits of the triangle that Delphi, along with the Acropolis and Sounion make and create a magnetic field, which makes Aegina irresistible. Besides its position at the center of the Saronic gulf so close to Greece’s capital, Aegina has conquered a unique and irreplaceable seat in the hearts of artists, litterateurs, Hellenists and visitors who come back every year fanatically.
