Valley of the Temples (Agrigento-2015)

An exceptional historic testimony to Magna Graecia’s presence in this area, was inserted onto the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1997. The remains from the Hellenic city, and additionally from the successive Punic-Roman era, the imposing Doric temples – to this day almost completely intact constitute the richness of this site. It recounts a millenary history that began in the 6th Century B.C. with the foundation of the ancient Greek colony of Akragas.
