Pondering Sicily’s Past at the Valley of the Temples

I’m at Sicily’s greatest ancient sight — Agrigento’s Valley of the Temples. Giant statues once stood here, between the columns at the Temple of Zeus. Now, they seem to be melting into the earth —an evocative reminder that, 500 years before Christ, Sicily was a center of Greek civilization. Take a minute and join me as I explore.
