"The majestic ruins" Agrigento by scanos

Agrigento Travel Guide: 138 reviews and 294 photos

day Trip from Palermo

The 2 hour train journey from Palermo to Agrigento was well worth it. The Valle dei Templi ("Valley of the Temples") is a short bus ride away from Agrigento train station. The entrance fee to the Unesco World Heritage site was 8 euros.

A long walk around

The site straddles two side of the road and initially deceiving as one it appears quite small. The second section is close to a mile long. The whole site takes approximately 3 hours to see properly and even in late October the sun was very hot and the trek was quite gruelling.
