Agrigento Capital of Culture 2025
Our Stable is located about 38 km from Agrigento and about 30 km from Sciacca.
This location places it between these two fascinating Sicilian cities.
Valley of the Temples
(Unesco Heritage)
One of the most important and spectacular archaeological sites in the world, the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento is a journey back in time to discover Magna Graecia. The archaeological park covers about 1300 hectares and includes the remains of eight Doric temples from the 5th century BC, including:
- Temple of Concordia, perfectly preserved and a symbol of the city.
- Temple of Hercules, the oldest on the site.
- Temple of Juno, located in a breathtaking panoramic position.
- Temple of Olympian Zeus, one of the most imposing constructions of the ancient Greek world.
🌟 Tip: Visit the Valley of the Temples at sunset for an evocative experience, with the temples illuminated and the sky in warm colors.
Turkish Steps
A few kilometers from Agrigento, this spectacular white marl cliff plunges into the crystal-clear sea of the Agrigento coast. Its undulating shape and the contrast between the white of the rock and the blue of the sea make it a unique attraction. It is a perfect place to take photos and admire the sunset.
🌟 Tip: To preserve the area, climbing directly on the cliff is prohibited. Admiring it from the beach is a great alternative!
Historic Center of Agrigento
