Paestum

Paestum is declared to be a World Heritage Site by Unesco. Nowadays it is one of the most famous archeological sites in Italy. Paestum is almost entirely surrounded by walls. It used to be a Greek colony built in a pentagonal shape with four big entrance doors. Among them “Marina Door” is the most interesting.

Three Doric temples compose the best architectural complex of Magna Grecia (Great Greece): Poseidon Temple (Neptune – V Century B.C.), Cerere Temple, dedicated to Goddess Athena, the most ancient one, the Basilica dated back to the VI century that is actually a temple dedicated to the Goddess Hera, the main Godhead in Paestum.
