Achilleion is a stunning palace located on the island of Corfu in Greece. Built in the late 19th century by Empress Elisabeth of Austria, also known as Sisi, the palace is a testament to her love for Greek culture and mythology. The architecture of Achilleion is heavily influenced by classical Greek styles, and it is adorned with statues and artworks that pay homage to ancient Greek heroes, particularly Achilles, after whom the palace is named.
