We were very impressed by the magnitude and splendor of this temple. Apart from the Greek ruins in Athens, this was the most impressive and well preserved Greek ruins that I’ve seen in my travels. It’s a bit treacherous walking around the site but the views and photos were amazing.

The archaeological site, frequented by the Lucanians between the 5th and 3rd centuries BC and today reachable through a comfortable road, it rises in the upper part of a hill, in the territory of the Greek colony of Velia. The site is extremely interesting for the presence of a well-preserved double wall circuit interspersed with five access doors
5. Castello di Magliano Nuovo

Founded by Greek colonists, the ancient city of Poseidonia dates from 600 B.C. It was abandoned for centuries, but the remarkably well-preserved Greek temples were excavated in the mid-18th century.

3 large Greek temples still standing, a walled Greek and Roman city, absolutely incredible. So much less publicised than other places like Pompeii but no less impressive. The park is almost empty and you can just take your time and explore. The museum opposite is very interesting but prepare for a 30-40 minute wait due to covid distancing. Massive (patronising) tip: if you're going in the summer, bring a bottle of water with you into the park ????

The museum has an excellent array of artifacts, stone tablets, displays and information about this wonderful archeological site. Don't skip it. The walk through and around the temple ruins is amazing, taking you back hundreds of years. If you are driving, parking is available for a reasonable fee, but be aware that some of the roads are ZTL zones where cars are not permitted.

Old castle on top of the mountain . Take a bus right to the gates. There is a coffe shop in the courtyard. Really worth the trip , even just for the amazing view . You can see the castle from the beach.
