When it was called Akragas, Pindaro considered it to be "the Most Beautiful among Mortal Cities". The town was founded by colonists from Rhodes and Crete coming from nearby Gela and reached its maximum splendor in the V c. BC when the magnificent Doric temples were built on the southern hill. In 406 the town was conquered by the Carthaginians though with the last Punic War it passed into Roman hands, who took over and changed its name to Agrigentum.

En fantastisk plats, helt underbart att vandra runt bland alla dessa fantastiska, välbevarade fornlämningar. Mycket vackert! Det är väl värt tiden det tar att köra dit.
Tyvärr så finns det ingenstans att äta lunch eller ta en kaffe utanför ingången, endast på själva området. När vi upptäckte detta så var det lite väl långt att gå tillbaka.

I have never written a review before and always preferred to keep my opinions private. Well this rule has now been broken. To be brief, my wife and I took a 14 day vacation to Sicily. We hired Mimmo to drive us around Sicily touring 4 of the major cities we chose. Hiring Mimmo was the best decision we made from years of traveling. We received a lot more than an excellent driver. We found Mimmo to be the nicest, professional and historically knowledgable person you can imagine. He was the "icing on the cake" from an amazing visit to Sicily. Grazie Amico!
