Temple of Concordia, Agrigento, Sicily - Photos

The image shows the Temple of Concordia, one of the most iconic monuments in the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, Sicily. Built in the 5th century BC, it is among the best-preserved Doric temples in the Greek world. Its imposing structure, with perfectly aligned columns and a triangular pediment, embodies the grandeur of classical architecture. At night, illuminated in golden tones as in the photograph, it offers a breathtaking spectacle that highlights the temple’s harmony and monumentality against the dark sky. This temple, probably dedicated to Concordia, the goddess of harmony, symbolizes the prosperity of the ancient city of Akragas and stands as an exceptional testament to Greek civilization in Sicily.
