Sicilia, insula in mari nostro. In albe e tramonti adorni di fiori le piaghe risvegli in lave roventi, in placide brezze, ondeggi le messi come lenite da dolci carezze. Spezzate la noia dei figli negletti indomiti venti, con flutti e risacche. I tardi tramonti sono albe di sempre, mondo sopito in rovine possenti.

Guide To Sicily’s Valley Of The Temples In Agrigento: What To See + Tips

Here’s my guide to visiting the majestic Valley of the Temples in Agrigento Sicily, with must know tips for visiting.

The Valley of the Temples is the world’s largest archaeological site and Sicily’s star attraction. Lying on the island’s southern coast, the complex is chock full of spectacular Greek ruins.

In 1997, the Valley of the Temples became a designated UNESCO site. It’s an ancient wonder that has attracted travelers throughout history. Indeed, some say the best preserved Greek ruins are found, not in Greece, but in Sicily.

The temples were once shiny and new, showcasing the power of the Greek culture and ancient Agrigento. Today, some lie in romantic ruins among olive groves while others are in pristine condition.

Pure in line and logic, these honey-colored Doric temples boast a stunning setting in a rolling valley ridge. The lyric poet Pindar called this part of Sicily “the most beautiful city of mortals” and Cicero claimed the valley “does not know a sunless day.”

You can’t help but be transported back to the 6th century B.C. You can scamper over their steps, sit amid the ruins, and gaze out onto the sea.

History Of The Valley Of The Temples

The town of Agrigento was founded by Greeks in 580 B.C. and named Akragas . The region was reputedly home to the goddess Persephone, whose job was to protect Akragas .

At the time, it was a wealthy city of almost 200,000 people. Akragas lasted until the Carthiginians conquered the city in 406 B.C.

The valley once held 15 temples built by Carthaginian slaves. Each temple was dedicated to a god performing different tasks. The temples were made of sandstone, which was then covered with white plaster to help prevent erosion.

The Greeks chose Akragas for its great rolling plains and dramatic heights, which contrasted with the craggy narrow valleys of Greece.

The dramatic temples weren’t intended for public use. The ordinary citizen could only observe them from afar.

How were the temples built? From a technical point of view, they were planned in advance with the architect providing precise drawings and measurements.

The temples were built with sandstone from a nearby quarry. Each stone was cut to a specific dimension. They were rolled on a ramp over logs to the construction site. The stone slabs were then raised and put in place using cranes and pulley systems powered by slaves.

The columns were built with drums, held in place by pegs. Once stacked up, they were “fluted” with vertical grooves. The entire temple was then coated with plaster and painted in vivid colors.

Archaeologist Domenico Antonio Lo Faso Piestrasanta discovered and unearthed the temples in the 19th century. Today, the archaeological complex includes the ruins of seven ancient Greek temples.

Excavations continue to this day. The city, or polis , is mostly still buried and only now being unearthed. The most recent find is a small theater near the museum.

In August 2023, archaeologists also discovered a huge cache of votive objects near the Temple of Juno. Those are offerings made to deity or other revered figure as an expression of devotion or supplication.

The find consisted of 60 terracotta statuettes, busts, and fragments of bronze. They may have been placed there after the Carthaginians pillaged the city.

Tickets & Tours For The Valley Of The Temples

In high season, you should pre-book a skip the line ticket to avoid lines. I also advise booking a guided tour because, apart from the Archaeological Museum, there’s not much informational signage at the site itself.

You can book a guided tour from Catania or a guided tour from Palermo . You can also book a longer full day tour from Catania or from Palermo that includes a visit to the nearby Villa Romana del Casale.

I thought the villa was one of the most spectacular ancient sites I saw in Sicily. So, if you don’t mind a long day, this is an excellent option.

It will be a long haul, but you can also visit the temples on a tour from Taormina .

If you are driving or taking public transport to Agrigento, you can also book a 2 hour guided tour that meets at the Via Panoramica Valle dei Templi in the valley. Or a 3 hour private tour with an expert local guide.

Guide To The Valley Of The Temples : What To See

Here are the main sites to see when visiting the Valley of the Temples.

1. Pietro Griffo Regional Archaeological Museum

It’s best to start your visit to the Valley of the Temples at the extremely well-curated Archaeological Museum . It’s one of Europe’s best archaeological museums and set within a 14th century Cistercian monastery.

The museum provides a good introduction to the valley, with a brilliant collection of artifacts recovered from excavations in the area. The exhibits span over 2,000 years and are presented in 18 rooms.

The key highlights include relics from the prehistoric age, Mycenaean age, ancient Greece, and ancient Rome. The exhibits are labeled in Italian and English (until the last rooms). It’s hard to take photos because the museum is dimly lit and everything is displayed in glass cases with small spotlights installed inside.

Among the highlights are a stunning collection of well-preserved Greek vases from the 7th century B.C., urns, statues, kraters, mosaics, coins, weapons, and paintings. The Greek vases are rendered in both the “black figure” and (more sophisticated) “red figure” techniques.

One must see is the Triskeles Bowl. It’s the first known representation of the three legged symbol of Sicily, the Trinacria . Another is a white krater depicting Perseus and Andromeda. It’s an extremely rare krater bowl made from white clay used to make porcelain today.

On the lower level, in the main hall, you’ll see the museum’s centerpiece — the awe-inspiring reconstructed Telamon , or stone giant, from the Temple of Olympian Zeus.

The telamon represented Atlas, the son of Jupiter and Asia. He was condemned to support the world on his shoulders as a punishment for helping the Titan.

The telamon was discovered and rebuilt by R. Politi in 1825. It’s displayed upright in a huge hall, quite spectacularly. 

There’s also a model of the temple where the telamon once stood. The telamon was just one of 38 sculptures that decorated the sides of the temple. To the left, you’ll see three large heads from other telamon .

Another museum highlight is the Kourus , a Greek sculpture of a young boy. It was once on display at the Getty Villa in Los Angeles and was returned with an earthquake proof podium.

There’s a section with three Roman busts. You can see that Hadrian’s bust doesn’t really match the body it’s set on.

The Romans were practical and swapped heads instead of making new sculptures from scratch, a method my guide called “ancient photoshopping.”

The viewing terrace outside serves up panoramic views across the valley to the temples themselves — wonderful.

2. Ekklesiasterion and Oratory of Phalaris

The first thing you’ll see on a visit is the Ekklesiasterion, which looks like a miniaturized amphitheater.

Built in the 4th century B.C., it was a pubic space where citizens met to discuss affairs of state every nine days. The space seated up to 3,000 people on 22 horizontal rows of seats. Every session was opened with a sacrifice of a calf or pig to Zeus.

Connected to the theater is the so-called Oratory of Phalaris, dating from the 1st century B.C. It’s a small religious monument dedicated to a tyrant. The cella, or inner chamber, is all that survives.

Phalaris was famous for commissioning a bronze bull from the Athenian sculptor Perillo. He would place his enemies inside the bull and roast them alive. The shrieks from inside mimicked the roars of a bull. Not surprisingly, in 554 B.C., Phalaris was stoned to death by the inhabitants.

3. Temple Of Juno

Built in 450-40 B.C., the Temple of Juno (or Hera) was erected on the eastern end of the hill of temples. It was a Doric style temple with 6 columns across the front and back and 13 on the sides.

Though it’s named for Juno, it’s just a guess which god was worshipped here.

It’s believed that the temple was a sanctuary for both newlywed couples and for married women whose husbands had been unfaithful.

The temple was 135 feet long. The interior was divided into 3 rooms: the porch, the central cella , and a room at the rear called an opisthodomus . On the side walls of the cella were stairs leading to the roof.

At the center of the cella was a raised altar used for sacrifices to the god and a statue of Juno on a four step pedestal.

The temple stood until 1500, then crumbled from the impact of an earthquake. In the late 18th century, a local aristocrat reassembled the temple.

30 columns are standing and 16 have there original capitals.

4. Temple of Concordia

Erected in 430 B.C., the Temple of Concordia is the world’s best preserved Doric style Greek temple. Ironically, when built, it was the least important temple in the Valley of Temples. Like all other Greek temples, it faces east.

Concordia is the only temple in Sicily that never collapsed. The temple was dedicated to an unknown deity. Its name comes from a (probably unrelated) inscription discovered nearby by historian Tommaso Fazello.

One explanation for the temple’s longevity is that it was converted into a Christian church during Byzantine times and remained that way for 2,000 years until 1788. Inside, you can see three naves, characteristic of a church.

The temple has a double dedication. Originally, it was likely dedicated to Castor and Pollux. As a church, it was dedicated to Saints Peter and Paul.

The temple was once a dazzling blue and red with polychrome decorations, though there were no decorative relief sculptures on the pediment.

Like the Temple of Juno, Concordia once had 6 columns in the front and back and 13 on the sides. The interior was divided into 3 rooms.

Concordia is a perfectly-built temple, the epitome of Hellenistic genius. It was constructed with perfect ratios, tapering columns, sublime harmony, and optical refinements.

One such refinement was that the columns have a slight bulge and lean inward slightly. That innovation make them look straight from afar.

The builders also solved the unsightly “ corner problem ” most temples had at the time as a result of being built with stone instead of wood. To fix this, architects alternated triglyphs and metopes and centered the triglyphs above the column below.

A contemporary statue of Icarus , by Polish artist Igor Mitoraj, lays to the right side of the temple. It was part of a 2011 exhibition and is the only remnant left in place.

5. Temple Of Olympian Zeus

The Temple of Olympian Zeus was once one of the world’s largest Greek temples. Dedicated to Zeus, it was the most important one in the valley. The temple is now in ruins, so it’s hard to get a sense of its once majestic presence.

The temple was built after a Greek victory over the Carthaginians in 480 BC. It’s Doric in style, but is known as a heptastyle temple. There are 7 columns along the front and 14 on the sides. It was 107 feet high.

Unlike most temples, the Temple of Zeus had a series of half columns and a solid outer curtain wall, instead of the more typical free standing columns. 38 foot tall statues of giant telamons stood on recessed ledges within the column niches.

Today, only 5% of the temple’s original stones remain. It collapsed in 1401 and was recycled into other buildings.

You can still see three telamon giants (like the one in the museum) being assembled onsite. The goal is to create a steel frame to enclose them for viewing.

Discoveries suggest that, on the front of the temple, female caryatids may have stood in place of columns holding up the entablature. The relief work on the east pediment depicted a traditional battle scene among gods and giants. The west pediment showed stories from the Trojan War.

The temple was never fully finished. The historian Fazello claims that the last columns standing fell in 1401.

6. Temple of Hercules

The Temple of Hercules is the oldest structure in the valley, dating back to the late 6th century B.C. It received its attribution based on testimony by Cicero.

Once one of the most beautiful temples of antiquity, it’s now reduced to a few standing and partially ruined columns. Even so, the temple is imposing and evocative.

The temple was dedicated to Hercules, the national hero of Sicily. The locals would invoke Hercules against nightmares and deceptive dreams.

Among other things, Hercules was famous for freeing the world from the Nemean lion, killing the Lernaean hydra, taming the wild bull of Crete, and rescuing Theseus from Hades’ underworld.

Only 9 columns of the temple are left today. Englishman Alexander Hardcastle was responsible for reconstructing them.

In its heyday, the temple was decorated in red, pale blue, and deep blue. The pediment was decorated with sculptural friezes.

A marble sculpture of Hercules once stood inside. The torso was recovered and is in the cloisters of the Archaeological Museum. According to Cicero, the sculpture was so beautiful that part of its face was worn from the kisses of devotees.

You can walk around the temple and see the scattered ruins and some capitals. In places, you can see traces of white plaster.

7. Temple of Hephaestus (Vulcan)

Today, the Temple of Vulcan consists of only 2 columns and a ruined base. It was built around 430 B.C. and, like all the temples, faced east.

However, the footprint of the temple, built on the foundations of an even older one, suggests it was once one of the most important in the valley.

Hephaestus, known as Vulcan in Roman mythology, was the god of industry and work. Frightful to look at, he nonetheless married Venus.

According to legend, Hephaestus had his workshop at the base of Mount Etna, where he made thunderbolts for Zeus with the help of the cyclops.

8. Temple of Castor and Pollux

The final temple you’ll see on your walk through the park is the Temple of Castor and Pollux. The original was completely destroyed. What you see in its place is not the real deal.

The temple is a whimsical folly created in the early 19th century to impress travelers on the “grand tour” of Europe. It looks like something out of the Roman Forum , but it’s an inaccurate historical representation.

9. City Walls and Burial Holes

Dating from 500 B.C., the city walls of ancient Akragas were cut out from the natural outcrop. There were once 7 miles of walls, 9 gates, and some secret passages. Frescos once adorned the arches.

Over time, part of the walls were turned into an early Christian necropolis. Tombs were built into the natural cavities of the walls. Called arcosolia , they look like burial holes.

They were constructed between the 4th and 7th centuries B.C. Today, they are effectively windows to the sea.

The Carthaginians and other invaders destroyed the walls. A series of earthquakes further devastated the entire valley.

10. Hardcastle Villa

Villa Aurea was the home of the late English captain and patron of the arts Alexander Hardcastle. He developed a passion for architecture after visiting the temples in 1921.

Hardcastle moved to the site and spent his considerable personal fortune reconstructing the temples. Thanks to his efforts, the Temple of Hercules was re-erected and many ancient monuments were discovered.

Hardcastle became a local personality. Upon his death, he was buried in a tomb in the Bonamorone cemetery of Agrigento.

Today, the villa hosts art exhibitions. If it’s open, you can head in and admire the gardens.

Practical Guide & Tips The Valley Of The Temples In Agrigento

No guide to the Valley of the Temples would be complete without some must know tips for visiting.

1. How To Get To The Valley Of The Temples

The Valley of the Temples is near the southwestern coast of Sicily. It’s 80 miles by car from Palermo, 108 miles from Trapani, and 100 miles from Catania.

It’s reachable by car via regional highways connecting to Agrigento. There are parking lots next to both entrances that look like dirt fields. It costs 2 euros to park.

Trains run from both Palermo and Catania. Palermo Centrale station has several trains a day and the journey takes 2 hours. From Catania Centrale, it’s a minimum 5 hours with at least two train changes.

From the station in central Agrigento, it’s a 2 mile walk to the park entrance. You can also take the #2 bus and disembark at the Temple of Juno (eastern) entrance.

2. How To Get Around The Valley Of The Temples

There are two entrances to the Valley of the Temples. The eastern entrance is outside the Temple of Juno. (That’s the entrance I used.) The western entrance is Porta Quinta.

The park is split into two zones, east and west. Your ticket covers both zones and you can visit them in either order.

If you are coming from the museum, you’ll start in the eastern zone. It’s about a 15-20 minute walk or 5 minutes by car or bus.

In this zone, you’ll find the “superstar” ruins — the Temple of Juno, the Temple of Hercules, and the Temple of Concordia. There’s also a cafe and free public rest rooms.

In the western zone, you’ll find the Temple of Zeus, the Temple of Castor and Pollux, and a Sanctuary dedicated to the goddesses Demeter and Persephone. There are also some indigenous goats.

To get around the valley, it’s easiest to just walk. But there is quite a bit of walking involved.

A main path, the Strada Panoramica , takes you across the valley. But you’ll have to walk over uneven ground to get a closer look at the temples.

To explore all the sights in the park, you will need to walk approximately 3 miles. For 3 euros, an electric shuttle bus takes you from one entrance of the park to the other and makes 4 stops. You can also take a guided electric scooter tour to zip around quickly.

On a visit, you should budget 3 hours to see everything.

3. Tickets For The Valley Of The Temples

Tickets can be purchased at either the western or eastern entrance with cash or card. You can also pick up a map from the ticket office.

Ticket prices for the Archaeological Museum are:

• Price  € 8 per person
• Concession  € 4 per person
• Audio guides are € 5

You’ll definitely want to pick up an audio guide if you’re not on a tour. You’ll need to leave an ID as a “deposit.”

Ticket prices for the Valley of the Temples are:

• Price : € 10 per person
• Concession : € 5 per person
• Free admission:  the first Sunday of the month until 7:00 pm

A combined ticket for both attractions is:

• Price : € 13.50 per person
• Concession : € 7 per person

You can also book a skip the line ticket online in advance, which is advisable in high season.

4. Opening Hours

The park is open every day from 8:30 am to 7:00 pm. During high season in the summer, the hours extend to 11:00 pm on week days and until midnight on Saturdays and Sundays.

Prepare for the heat. Sicily is hot and there is no shade in the park (except perhaps under an olive tree). You should plan to wear a hat and bring water. There are vendors at the entrance selling both.

If you are staying in Agrigento in high season, I suggest you visit in the evening. At night, it cools down and the site is illuminated with lights. The downside is that it might be a bit more difficult to see the uneven surfaces in the park.

You can book a 2 hour evening tour on the valley’s website for 6:30 pm or 8:00 pm.

5. The Town of Agrigento

While you’re at the archaeological site, why not visit the historic center of Agrigento itself? Agrigento itself is nothing special, but it has a lovely medieval core.

The main drag is is Via Atenea, which is lined with boutiques, eateries, and bars. You’ll get some hiking in too. Narrow alleyways wind upwards off the main street, past tightly packed  palazzi and historic churches.

You can check out the cathedral. Or, you can hit the beach and relax after visiting the temples. The most spectacular beaches are Scala dei Turchi and Eraclea Minoa.

6. Where To Stay In Agrigento

If you have sore soles from trekking around the valley, there are plenty of good places to overnight in Agrigento. From many of them, you’ll have great views of the valley, which is illuminated at night.

Hotel Villa Athena is definitely the best place to stay. It’s a luxurious hotel with a prime location just a few steps from the temples. You’ll find 28 marbled rooms with terrific views in a serene setting.

If you’d like an agriturismo retreat, check out Casa Balata . It’s a countryside retreat about a 20 minute drive from the temples. You can relax and enjoy a pool, manicured gardens, and great meals.

Hotel Della Valle and the Doric Boutique Hotel are also good options.

7. Attractions Near The Valley of the Temples

If you are staying in Agrigento, there are two amazing sites to explore that are close to the Valley of the Temples: the Turkish Steps and the Villa Romano del Casale.

The Turkish Steps are a natural wonder and just a short drive from Agrigento. They are a sloping terraced white rock formation that drops into the ocean. The steps resemble a staircase (though you can’t walk on them).

Villa Romano del Casale is another UNESCO-listed wonder just an hour from Agrigento. It’s a luxurious 4th century Roman villa with the world’s largest and best preserved collection of mosaics. I promise, the mosaics will blow your mind.

Now you’re ready to start your visit of Agrigento Valley of The Temples!

Let’s start with a bit of history.

The origin of the valley dates back to the 6th century BC , when the Greek settlers, who had first settled in Gela (South of Agrigento), decided to go back a bit more inland in order to counter Selinunte’s attempts to expand . The land in the valley was very fertile, and favourable for cereal cultivation, so the place was perfect.

The Greek city of Akragas (Agrigento’s ancient name) then experienced a period of economic prosperity. The famous temples were erected during this period and as you know, they still contribute to the place’s fame centuries later!

Unfortunately, many cities were envious of this success. In 406 BC, the city was attacked by the Carthaginians . The 8-month siege ended up with the Carthaginians victory and all residents were killed or displaced.

After a quieter period, Akragas was forced to join the Carthaginians in the war against the Romans. The city was defeated in 210 BC and The Valley of the Temples was then gradually abandoned.

Today, the valley is a magnificent archaeological park of nearly 1,300 hectares.

During your visit, you will be able to admire 8 temples, all built between 510 and 430 BC.

• Hera Temple (or Juno Temple) , dedicated to Zeus’ wife. Burned down by the Carthaginians in 406, it had to be reconstituted.
• Temple of Concordia , the best preserved temple in the valley. This excellent preservation state is due to the fact that it was consecrated as a Christian basilica in the 6th century AD. It has therefore been relatively protected.
• Temple of Heracles , the oldest temple on the site of which only 8 columns remain.
• Temple of Olympian Zeus: it was destroyed by the Carthaginians before being completed
• Temple of the Dioscuri (Castor and Pollux)
• Temple of Hephaestus
• Temple of Demeter
• Temple of Asclepius (God of Medicine) used to welcome the sick.

In addition to the temples, there are also Greek and Roman necropolises, residential areas, the tomb of Theron , and many other remains.

You can visit the archaeological site on foot , but if you are tired or can’t walk too much, there is also a tourist train shuttle service . It goes from 1 entrance to the other and cost 3€ one way.

There is no shade in the archaeological park, so don’t forget to bring a hat and sunscreen. There is however a restaurant if you want to buy drinks or have lunch in the Valley of the Temples.

Agrigento Regional archaeological museum is located on a hill, in the middle of the Valley of The Temples archaeological park. You can access it viat the cloister of the ancient Cistercian abbey of San Nicola.

The entrance ticket costs 8€, however, as I told you a bit earlier, you can purchase a combined ticket to visit the Valley + the museum. Instead of paying 12€ + 8€ (20€), it will only cost you 15.50€ per person

And don’t forget that if you have already bought your skip the line ticket in advance using the link I gave you earlier,  the museum entrance is included!

If you are bored of walking or if you don’t have much time, don’t hesitate to take the tourist train shuttle (3€ one way) that goes from 1 entrance to the other.

As I told you a bit before, the best is to visit the Valley of the Temples early in the morning , it will be less hot and the tourist buses will not be here yet. The end of the afternoon is also a good option.

During the day, it’s really hot in summer, and as there is no shade, the visit can be quite tiring.

Hi, I will visit Agrigento this April. You mentioned in your Valley of the Temples article that there is “A group guided visit starting from the Temple of Juno ticket office”. How long is this tour and how much does it cost?

It seems that this tour is only available the first weekend of every month (Saturday and Sunday) at 10.30 am from April to December. It’s in Italian and it costs 5.00€. It’s better to book it in advance by calling at +39 0922 1839996 (official number of the Valley of the Temples).

I think they have stopped doing it during Covid and maybe they will have more availability and an English version a bit later in the year.

If you are not able to do the guided tour, the best is to rent the audioguide at the ticket offices of the Valley of the Temples. It costs 5€.

Enjoy your visit and your trip in Sicily!

Hi – great article thank you. Do you know if you can take bicycles into the Valley of the Temples if we hired bikes and cycled there? We are 2 adults and 2 children. We would love to do the e-scooter tour but expect children are not allowed? Also 4 x £62 is quite expensive. You have given us the idea to perhaps hire bicycles and cycle around the site. Thank you.

Hello Beccy,

Thank you! For the e-scooter tour, the minimum age requirement is not specified. However, on the activity booking page, in the comments section, we can see that some people have done the e-scooter tour with 6 year olds kids.

It is not possible to rent bicycles to visit the valley of the temples.

Enjoy your visit!

Do you know if I buy a combined ticket for the park and the archaeology museum can I visit the park one day and the museum the next? Or do I have to fit both in the same day?

Hello Laura,

On the Valley of the Temples website, it says: “COMBINED REGIONAL ARCHAEOLOGICAL MUSEUM ‘PIETRO GRIFFO’ AND VALLEY OF TEMPLES (VALID 3 DAYS FROM FIRST USE | ALLOWS ONE ENTRANCE TO THE VALLEY AND ONE TO THE MUSEUM) So you can visit the museum one day and the valley of the temples the next day.

Enjoy your stay in Sicily!

Valley of the Temples

The Valley of the Temples at Agrigento, Sicily, routinely tops every list of must-see places in Sicily. One of the most important archaeological sites in the Mediterranean, the Valley of the Temples is remarkable for its long history, its importance in the ancient world, and its testament to the influence and breadth of ancient Greece. The Valley of the Temples has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1997 and first-time visitors to Sicily should absolutely try to make a stop here. Here's everything you need to know about visiting this incredible archaeological site, now operating as the Parco Valle dei Templi Agrigento.

History of the Valley of the Temples & Agrigento

Agrigento (Akragas in Greek) was founded by the Greeks in the 6th century B.C.. What started as a minor outpost soon grew to be one of the most important cities in the Mediterranean. For centuries, Agrigento and other Greek cities in Sicily were in the crossfire of the frequent regional wars between Syracuse, Corinth, and Carthage. During the Punic Wars of the 3rd and 2nd centuries B.C., Agrigento was a prize sought by both the Carthaginians and the Romans. By the 1st century A.D. and the rise of the Roman Empire, it once again became a prosperous trade center. Byzantine, Arab, and Norman conquests followed over the centuries as the city of Agrigento was frequently sacked.

The modern city of Agrigento contains a mixture of medieval, Byzantine, and more recent architecture, with most of the remains of the old city buried underneath. But the real attraction at Agrigento lies just outside the old city. The Valley of the Temples is a vast field of ruined temples that speak to the importance of ancient Akragas during the height of its Greek phase. The remains of those seven temples, as well as other sections of the 3,212-acre site, are among the most iconic sites in all of Italy.

What to See & Do at the Valley of the Temples

There are seven temple ruins in the valley (which is not really a valley, but a plateau), in various states of preservation. All were built in the Doric style, between 510 - 430 B.C. The best-preserved and most often photographed are:

• Temple of Concordia: With its six mighty columns and raised pediment, the Temple of Concordia is the best-preserved in the park. During the early Middle Ages, it was converted to a church, which is part of the reason it remained in a relatively high state of preservation. A contemporary statue of Icarus, by Polish artist Igor Mitoraj, lays in front of the temple.
• Temple of Juno: Near the eastern entrance of the park, the Temple of Juno, once very similar in design to the Temple of Concordia, was destroyed by the Carthaginians. Marks from its burning are still visible in the temple interior.
• Temple of Hercules: Only eight columns remain standing from this once-mighty temple, the oldest at the site.

The other temples are:

• Temple of Olympian Zeus: Part of a vast Olympian field, the Temple of Olympian Zeus was once held up by columns in the shape of atlases, or giants in human form. Several of them lay on the ground, partially reassembled near the temple.
• Temple of Castor and Pollux: A partially reconstructed corner with only four columns is all that remains of this temple, also called the Temple of the Dioscuri.
• Temple of Hephaestus:  The footprint of this 5th-century temple, built on the foundations of an even older one, suggests it was once one of the most important in the valley.
• Temple of Asclepius: Set apart from the rest of the sacred complex, this temple to the Greek god of medicine was likely a pilgrimage site for the sick.

Other sites at the Valley of the Temples archaeological park include:

• Pietro Griffo Archaeological Museum. Accessible via a combined ticket, the museum houses many finds from more than a century of excavations at the Valley of the Temples, including statuary, antique vases, and sarcophagi.
• Tomb of Theron: This misnamed tower tomb sits near the necropolis area.
• Necropoli Giambertoni and Paleo-Christian Necropolis. Both these burial grounds are composed of chest tombs and carved niches that once held funerary urns.
• Kolymbethra Garden. Accessible via a combined ticket this verdant spot features thousand-year-old olive trees, rock formations and rock-cut chambers, and a small stream.
• Remains of the ancient city walls. These once formidable walls were destroyed by the Carthaginians and other subsequent invaders, plus a series of earthquakes that further devastated the entire valley.
• By car: The Valley of the Temples is near the southwestern coast of Sicily, about 81 miles (130 kilometers) by car from Palermo, 108 miles (174 kilometers) from Trapani, and 99 miles (160 kilometers) from Catania. It's reachable by car via several regional highways that connect to Agrigento.
• By train: Trains from Palermo Centrale station run several times a day, with a two-hour journey time. From Catania Centrale, it's a minimum five-hour journey with at least two train changes. From the station in central Agrigento, it's a 1.9-mile (3-kilometer) walk to the park entrance, or take the #2 bus to Fermata Tempio di Giunone.

The three-star Villa San Marco and five-star Villa Athena are both located within the archaeological park, and both have pools. Villa Athena has a restaurant and spa, while San Marco offers B&B service. Dozens of hotels of all classes are located in Agrigento town. There are beachfront hotels south and west of the Valley of the Temples, on the SS115 coastal road.

Tips for Visiting & General Information

• Weather: From mid-June to early September, Sicily is extremely hot—daytime temps can top 100 degrees F (37 degrees C). Try to avoid the Valley in the hottest part of the day, and bring a sun hat, sunscreen, sunglasses, and a water bottle. There are water fountains throughout the park.
• Walking: To explore all the sights in the park, you will need to walk 2.5 to 3.1 miles (4 to 5 kilometers). For 3 euros, an electric shuttle bus will take you from one entrance of the park to the other. The park offers free electric wheelchairs, by reservation, to those with reduced mobility.
• Entrances: There are currently two open entrances to the archaeological park. If you just want to see the main temples, head to the Temple of Hera Lacinia (Juno) entrance.
• Facilities: There is a cafe in the park, as well as bookstores at both main gates.
• Tickets: There are three different ticket types for the Valley. You can purchase a ticket just for the Valley of the Temples, a combination that includes the Valley and Kolymbethra Garden, or a combination that includes the Valley and access to the archaeological museum.

Plan to spend 3 to 4 hours in the park, more if you visit the gardens or the musuem.

The Valley of the Temples is located adjacent to the city of Agrigento a few miles inland from Sicily's southwest coast.

The two closest airports are Falcone Borsellino airport in Palermo and Fontanarosso airport in Catania. The drive time from each is about two hours.

Read more about your

Your LivTours Private Agrigento Tour begins by meeting your local private guide who will share with you the historic importance of this ancient city.  With your guide’s vibrant descriptions, you can imagine just what life was like thousands of years ago when this city was lined with seven miles of fortified wall to protect the Valley of the Temples.

You and your guide will take a small hike to the stunning first stop – the Temple of Juno offering amazing views of the rest of the ancient town and temples below with the Mediterranean as the backdrop.  Sure to be one of the highlights of your Sicilian stay, you will discover how this 450BC Doric temple, not dedicated to the God Juno, was actually misnamed!  The six standing columns will give you an idea of the importance of Ancient Greece at its height of its reign.

A stroll down the hill from these archeological ruins will take you to the most well preserved temple in the valley, the Temple of Concordia. Your private guide will tell you about its many uses throughout history and its prominence in the Roman Empire.  You will continue to the Villa Aurea, the next stop on your tour, where you will enter the manicured gardens and learn about Alexander Hardcastle. A wealthy and prominent English archeologist whose kind generosity aided in the excavations of so many of the surrounding temples. Walk through Hardcastle’s lush gardens and imagine living in this oasis in the middle of the Valley of the Temples.

Next it is on to the Temple of Heracles, one of the much loved heroes of Greek mythology. This is considered the most ancient of the temples of Agrigento. Admired by Roman emperors such as Commodus and Maximian, Heracles or Hercules depending on your spelling, was known for his extraordinary strength and this temple pays tribute to just that. One of the highlights of the tour is sure to be the Temple of Castor and Pollux, with four columns and numerous statues still intact, has become the visual symbol of Agrigento.

ADD A DRIVER & ENJOY BONUS VISIT TO SCALA DEI TURCHI

At an additional cost, you can choose to be picked up by a private chauffeur driver from Palermo, Catania or Syracuse and drive to this city in pure comfort, eliminating the need to navigate the Sicilian roads on your own. If you choose a pick up service, you can also make a bonus stop stop at the famed Scala dei Turchi if you wish, for no extra cost. This cliff of limestone rock formation has over the years formed a type of “staircase” hence its Italian name of “Turkish staircase”.

If you choose the addition of a driver to and from your hotel, your driving will be waiting for you at the entrance of your hotel. They will bring you to the Valley of the Temples, and then, after your tour, you can relax in your luxury car as you drive to an absolute visual natural masterpiece – the Scala dei Turchi. If weather permits, bring along a bathing suit and take a quick dip in the crystal clear, cool sea among the many other tourists and Italians who spend their sea vacation getaways here. It is picture perfect for a few quick snapshots before being chauffeured back to your hotel.

Constant excavation and research is going on so it was delightful to see what had been discovered or even reassessed in a historical context from my last visit. The villa is an outstanding example of both visual storytelling and of the architectural detail of the time. Each room contains tiny detailed mosaics of hunting scenes, athletics, mythology and daily living. The “grand hall” is breathtaking in its detail of the capture of exotic creatures around the world. The entire villa speaks of the wealth of its owner (still tentative as of 10/23 as to who this was) and the culture of the time. We stayed approximately 2.5 hours but could have easily stayed an hour or two longer! There is a museum on site that can be easily missed but is fascinating as well!

Agrigento: Valley of the Temples tour

Step back in time and learn about the lavish lifestyles enjoyed by the Greek elite in the ancient city of Akragas near modern-day Agrigento . A stroll around the extensive ruins of the city reveals the fabulous wealth of those who lived here, the skills of the stonemasons, ceramicists and mosaic workers who built and maintained the city, and the innovative ways in which they planned the city streets and brought water to the site. You can also see the magical gardens used for pleasure and sustenance, learn about the terrifying fate of those who displeased the rulers and figure out why this magnificent city was suddenly abandoned.

Departing from your hotel in Agrigento by car, you will spend the morning exploring the remarkable ruins that make up the Agrigento archaeological complex, known as the Valley of the Temples. This privately guided walking tour is conducted by a local expert guide who will be able to talk you through the fascinating history of the region.

Starting at the top of the valley with your guide, you’ll be able to enjoy a gentle stroll down through the archaeological area, learning about the ruins of what was once the great city of Akragas, founded in 581 BC. Today, the area is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and includes a grid of ancient streets as well as the five massive Doric temples from which the valley takes its name.

The two most spectacular temples within the site are the Temple of Concordia and the Temple of Juno. The Temple of Concordia is a colossal structure that offers a real sense of how prosperous and significant Akragas once was. The building is one of the largest and most intact Doric temples in the world. Its proportions and elegantly simple design are largely untouched, despite being converted into a Christian basilica in the 6th century AD.

Nearby, the similar Temple of Juno was damaged by an earthquake in the Middle Ages, but is still fascinating to visit. The oldest surviving temple though, is that of Hercules, which dates from the end of the 6th century BC and sits among a cluster of impressive ruins in the eastern portion of the site.

All in all, the walk through the temple complex covers a distance of around 1 km (just over half a mile) and is predominantly downhill, though we do recommend comfortable and sturdy footwear. During the tour, there will be time to stop for a short coffee or gelato at the café located within the complex and use the restrooms should you wish. Your driver will meet you toward the bottom of the valley at the end of your walk through the site.
