Discovering the Valley of the Temples

The Valley of the Temples is an archaeological site located near Agrigento in Sicily, Italy. Spanning approximately 1,300 hectares, it is one of the most outstanding examples of Greater Greece art and architecture. The valley is home to a stunning collection of well-preserved ancient Greek temples, dating back to the 5th century BC during the peak of Magna Graecia. Moreover, the valley's scenic setting, overlooking the Mediterranean Sea and surrounded by olive groves and almond orchards, adds to its allure. Designated as a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1997, La Valle dei Templi stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of Greek civilization in Sicily and continues to captivate travelers with its rich history and breathtaking beauty. #summerdream
