The sanctuary of Aphaia on Aegina
Aegina is a small island not far from Athens, well known for its production of pistachios, so if you pass through, catch the opportunity to taste their pistachios liquor!
The temple is simply wonderful, and the majority of the structure has been well preserved.
Some of the rests are kept in a small museum in the same site of the temple.
As Roman girl, I am used to walk aroud ruins, but these sort of sites always leave me astonished.. It is ubelievable to imagine that this sanctuary has been built almost 500 years before Christ, and it is still there now!
