Agrigento Walking Tour
Agrigento, Italy
Why Walk Agrigento
The Valley of the Temples at Agrigento preserves a ridge of magnificent Greek temples dating from the 5th century BC, when the city of Akragas was one of the wealthiest in the Mediterranean. The Temple of Concordia is one of the best-preserved Greek temples anywhere, rivaling the Parthenon. The almond trees that bloom in February among the ruins create one of Sicily's most iconic landscapes. Above the valley, the medieval town preserves a Norman cathedral and narrow Arabic-influenced streets.
