Temple of Athena at Paestum, near Salerno. It’s a Greek temple, supposedly the best preserved one in the entire Mediterranean area. William saw a picture of this in a guidebook before we left for Italy, and decided that we had to see it. Paestum was originally a Greek settlement, but was taken over by the Romans as a colony.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
