The Valley of the Temples is located on a ridge just outside the city of Agrigento in Sicily. The valley houses the remains of seven Greek temples called the Valley of the Temples. The Temple of Concordia, which was built in the 5th century BC, is the best preserved in the Valley and is one of the largest and best preserved Doric style temples still standing. The Doric columns are 7 meters high including the capitals and have a diameter of 1.3 meters at the base. Other temples include the Temple of Juno, used for the celebration of weddings, and the Temple of Heracles, the oldest Temple at the site which today consists of only eight columns.
