Parco Archeologico di Segesta

About

Take a trip back to the dawn of Sicilian civilization at Segesta Archeological Park, and be transported to the age of the Elymians – Sicily''s ancient tribal inhabitants. Stroll along and soak up the wild nature and admire the site's stunning Doric temple and ancient amphitheater. All the while, your expert guide will fill you in on the amazing history of Sicilian antiquity. The temple, despite its majestic design, was never fully completed due to the war between Segesta and Selinunte. That's why it lacks very much ornamentation, altar, or deity dedication. The incredible limestone theatre was built at the end of the 3rd century B.C. and follows the template of Greek-Hellenistic architecture. The scenery from this ancient stage is nothing short of epic, and what better way to immortalize the view than a personalized postcard? Snap your photo, and with the Pemcards app, a physical postcard will be delivered to the address of your choice.
