Agrigento
Agrigento, Italy is the current city at the location of the Ancient Greek city known as Akragas. The temples are among the best Greek ruins you can find outside of Greece. An excellent day trip from Mondello.
Temple of Dioscuri
Temple of Ercole
Temple of Juno 450 BC
Yep, that’s a dog sleeping under Icarus.
Temple of Concordia, also 450 BC
Bridget pinching Icarus. Hey, if you fly too close to the sun…
The Valley of the Temples was well worth the trip. This gave us an opportunity to travel through the Sicilian countryside with much to see.
The island of Sicily has been the most conquered place in European history. This is mostly because of it’s location in the world. That is why you find Greek architecture on the Italian island. It is not far from Greece and the Middle East, so it has been desired by lots of countries. It has gorgeous weather right now and it’s a beautiful place.
