The Valley of the Temples in Agrigento is the largest archaeological site in the world. This Sicilian plateau spans 1,300 hectares of sun-drenched history, where some of the most remarkable ruins of Ancient Greek and Byzantine empires are still standing tall.

Hug the coastline and explore a land of ancient empires and time-worn ruins at Agrigento. Discover every history-rich inch of this heritage site.
A key highlight is the Temple of Concordia, one of the best preserved Greek temples in the world. But there's more to see here. Touch the twisted gnarled bark of an 800-year-old olive tree, visit the Temple of Hera, where the ancients made sacrifices to the queen of the gods, and discover why the centuries have been less kind to the temple of poor, old Zeus. If you still have time, opt to wander the idyllic Kolymbetra Gardens.
The Valley of the Temples might not technically be a valley, but it's certainly got the 'temple' part covered!
