In the Southern part of Sicily, men have united their devotion for the heaven’s powers and their love for land’s fruits for centuries. Blessed by the gods, the Agrigente region has been the Italy’s granary for a long time. 

The archeological park of the Temples valley is listed as a UNESCO World Heritage site. The remains of a Greek city, Agregas, built more than 2500 years ago, fit in a landscape where shapes of Greek art are merging with the vegetation and the colors of the scrubland. 
Down the temples, a heavenly garden created in the 18th century –the Kolymbetra garden offers a rich range of Mediterranean’s vegetation. In this garden, water irrigates fruit trees thanks to an ingenious system of supply, brought by the Arabs when they colonized these lands.
