Polydrosos () is a village and a community of the Delphi municipality. Before the 2011 local government reform it was a part of the municipality of Parnassos, of which it was a municipal district. The community of Polydrosos covers an area of 38.672 km2.
== History == Signs of civilization in the area are going back in the early-Greek era (3rd millennium BC). After the destruction of some phocis cities and settlements from Philip II of Macedon, the ancient city of Lilaea merged with the near town of Erochus that was placed in the nowadays Polydrosos cemetery area.
