SELINUNTE

The archaeological site extends from the Castelvetrano hill to the sea, his surface is of about 10 Km². In this place, for about three centuries, there was the meeting and the fight between Greek and Phoenicians-Punic people. The visit of the ruins begin from oriental temples, called with alphabet letters because we don't know certainty to whom they were dedicated. Our tour continues through the Acropolis, where we find six temples and various religious buildings.
