Delphi or Cornith?

Want to take one day trip from Athens. Delphi or Corinth?  Have been looking up info on both on the internet.

Cornith interests me because Paul ( of the letters of Paul) lived there for a few years. Was a tent maker there, spoke publically about Jesus, helped the church.

Delphi interest me because it was the  belly- button of the world to the Greeks. The Oracle there so influential to Greek culture.

Looking at videos by past travellers and reading tour guides, Corinth looks like ruins of a Roman town reminisent of areas in Athens. Delphi seems more interesting to visit. So I choose Delphi.

Want Mike's input. When he stepped out onto the back porch, I asked him, " Day trip to Delphi or Corninth?" I was prepared to talk about the pros and cons of each for at least ten minutes. But no. His reply was instant and sure. "Delphi. Of central importance to the Ancient Greeks. Why go to Corinth?"

Well good then. Delphi here we come...
