Kolymbetra Garden
Valle dei Templi Giardino della Kolymbetra - 92100 Agrigento

 

 

 

Located in the heart of the Valley of the Temples, Kolymbetra Garden is an authentic open-air archaeological and agricultural museum. It is managed by the FAI (Italian Environment Fund), which in 1999, thanks to a fundamental intervention, was returned to its splendor and fullness. During the year - especially in the summer - it is home to different events: exhibitions, receptions, musical events and food. Walking through the recreated paths one can enjoy views of orange, lemon, almond, and mulberry trees, and many other varieties of fruits. One can smell its perfumes, live the exciting implications that this place transmits and, in the silence of this little paradise, imagine the happy voices of the inhabitants of the ancient and noble Akragas.
