Where to see the best preserved ANCIENT GREEK TEMPLES? In ITALY!!! In the southern Italy and on the island of SICILY Greeks founded their colonies “MAGNA GRAECIA”
PAESTUM, originally POSEIDONIA, as it was dedicated by Greeks to Poseidon, is famous for its imposing temples, the most ancient of which is more than 2500 years old!
PAESTUM is just an hour and half away from Naples but due to the immense fame of Pompei, Amalfi coast and Capri island, this archeological site is less visited by foreign visitors in spite of its unique character and treasures😊 For me, working in a crowd, it is actually an advantage not to be in a huge human flow at least during my holidays😅 that’s why I highly recommend this place to all people who feel the same and would love to see something very special 😊
I always suggest my tourists taking a guided tour while visiting an archeological site, it makes your experience totally different and unforgettable! Last time I was in Paestum 7 years ago we didn’t have a tour, as we are guides and know a lot😅 but I should admit that this time visiting PAESTUM with a guide was just fantastic! Discovering some exciting details, having a chance to ask your guide a question is just priceless!
Of course you have to be lucky to find an enthusiastic guide eager to share and answer your questions and this time with our guide Donatella we were lucky😊
The trip to Paestum was one of the highlights of this summer for me, the whole experience was just WOW, not only its cultural aspect😊
Our stay in the cozy with a swimming pool to recover from the heat 🤪 made it even more special ❤️
Having a pizza at with its pleasant atmosphere was also an important ingredient of our trip😊
We’ll definitely be back to explore more!
