More specifically, he led the allied Greek forces to a last stand at the Battle of Thermopylae (480 BC) while attempting to defend the pass from the invading Persian army; he died at the battle and entered myth as the leader of the 300 Spartans. While the Greeks lost this battle, they were able to expel the Persian invaders in the following year.

This trip was worth taking if you are really interested in visiting thermopylae, otherwise it's very expensive for a glorified taxi ride as there's no guide at either site
