Greek mythology
Mount Olympus
Home of the twelve Olympian gods, seat of Zeus's eternal throne.
Rising above the clouds of northern Greece, Mount Olympus was the sacred dwelling of the twelve Olympian gods. Here Zeus held court, judgments were passed, feasts were shared with immortals, and the fates of mortals were decided over cups of ambrosia. Its peaks were perpetually shrouded in mist, hidden from mortal eyes, a boundary between the divine and the earthly.
