Southeastern Sicily is home to two unique UNESCO World Heritage Sites, Greek temples and Baroque architecture, and with 2 to 3 days you can visit them both. The Valley of the Temples, in Agrigento, has some of the best-preserved Greek temples still standing and Agrigento is the 2025 Italian capital of culture. Several towns in the Noto Valley have buildings that are outstanding examples of Sicilian Baroque style.

The Valley of the Temples, Valle dei Templi, in Agrigento is one of Sicily’s must-see sights. The Greeks settled in this area 2500 years ago. Extensive remains of Greek temples are in the archaeological park. In ancient times, this was a large sacred area where monumental Greek temples were erected in the fourth and fifth centuries BC. These temples are some of the largest and best preserved Greek temples outside of Greece.
