The archaeological area known as the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, is one of the most important archaeological sites in the world and a Unesco world heritage site since 1998. Luigi Pirandello’s birth-home is a late-18th century country-house standing alone and silent in the middle of Agrigento’s countryside, in an area known as Caos, on a hill, amidst olive-trees and oaks, steeply sloping to the sea. The FREE beach at San Leone has a number of rocks that create safe shallow pools, and are excellent for sitting on and watching the sea. The tropical-like and delightful sea-side resort of Agrigento has an inviting boardwalk between rows of palm trees and coffee shops, and the Mediterranean Sea, sometimes referred to as the African Sea. A fishing port with fresh fish markets add a touch of splendour to the atmosphere.

The archaeological area known as the Valley of the Temples in Agrigento, Sicily, is one of the most important archeological sites in the world and a Unesco world heritage site since 1998. Along a long rocky scarp, chosen as the southern limit of the town, are still sited the great temples of ancient Akragas: Hera (Juno) Lacinia, Concordia, Heracles (Hercules), Olympian Zeus (Jupiter), Castor and Pollux (Dioscuri) and Hephaistos (Vulcan). Further down, on the bank of the Akragas river, near a medical spring, stood the Temple dedicated to Asklepius (Eusculapius), the god of medicine.

The valley of the temples
Henry Swinburne. Travels in the Two Sicilies. It was scarcely possible to be more judicious and fortunate than the Agrigentines were in the choice of a situation for a large city; they were here provided with every requisite for defence, pleasure, and comfort of life;a natural wall, formed by abrupt rocks, presented a strong barrier against assailants; pleasant hills sheltered them on three sides without impeding the circulation of air; before them a broad plain watered by the Acragas, an agreeable stream from which the city took its name, gave admittance to the sea-breeze...... the port or emporium lay in view at the mouth of the river.

Review Submitted: May 31, 2008, Date of stay: May, 2008
The house was spacious, immaculate and it was lovely to escape the hustle and bustle of Agrigento to this quiet little haven. Andrea booked our party into the museums/galleries which was very thoughtful. He also provided some food and water for our arrival - this was very much appreciated. The people of Agrigento were very friendly and although there was a language barrier, we had a lot of fun trying to communicate with the locals. The local bus service could be a little unpredictable but that didn't spoil our holiday. Would definitely recommend this apartment for anyone who appreciates peace and quiet after a long day sightseeing."
Owner's response:
Thank you mister Gummerson of your rewiew.
Best regards.
Andrea.
