When planning for you, we always consider what time is sunset, especially if you are a photography enthusiast. Yes… when I talk with you about your desires for your itineraries, I get into a lot of details about your interests and how you like to travel, and I customize your tour to the hour (If that’s what you want.). So, when you visit Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, the light is just right on the Temple of Hercules for a beautiful photograph. #experiencesicily #sicily #thisissicily #agrigento #templeofhercules #temple #tempio #ancientgreek #ancient #doric #architecture #unesco #sicilia #siciliabedda #italy #italia #sicilyvacation #sicilians_world #ig_sicily #igerssicilia #instasicilia #sicily_tricolors #traveltogether #authenticsicily #sicilytour #whatsicilyis #sicilytravel #viverelasicilia (at Valle Dei Templi Agrigento) https://www.instagram.com/p/CIXST9LF-4-/?igshid=1mytpceq1443d

The doric temple at Segesta, built c. 420 BCE by a Sicilian architect who was influenced by his Greek forefathers’ design styles, sits in the Trapani Province countryside. #experiencesicily #sicily #segesta #doric #temple #calatafimi #grecoantico #ancientgreek #sicilia #siciliabedda #italy #italia #sicilyvacation #sicilians_world #ig_sicily #igerssicilia #instasicilia #gf_italy #siculamenteDoc #sicily_tricolors #ig_visitsicily #Sicilia_PhotoGroup #smallgrouptours #traveltogether #authenticsicily #sicilytour #whatsicilyis #sicilytravel #viverelasicilia (at Tempio di Segesta) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLHHQX-lPgJ/?igshid=173by1r1ikwmv

Archaeological site in Agrigento - Sicily/ Italy

Greek Temple-Remains at the Temple of Castor and Pollux, Twin Brothers transformed into the Constellation of Gemini in Greek Mythology.

Unlike many of the other temple ruins that one can visit throughout Sicily at Agrigento, Segesta, and on the acropolis of Selinunte, the sacred area of the Santuario della Malophoros (at Selinunte) was not a single rectangular building with Doric-style columns. It was an enclosed, walled, complex (a temenos) with a regal entranceway (called a propylaeum). The tall, thick perimeter of the Sanctuary enabled devotees to Demeter, Persephone, and Hades to practice their secretive rites in private. Here in this photo, you can see our group from May 2019 exiting the 6th century BCE sanctuary. (More on the rites in a future post.) Last Tuesday’s presentation about the Myths and Mysteries of Sicily: Western Sicily Part 1 was recorded.
