Picture on "new 2016 tours" Where is this??

Hi,

There is a picture at the RS home page titled "2016 tours have arrived" with a temple in the background, arid land, and a couple beside a fallen statue in the foreground?? Where is this site??

Always looking for my next adventure!

It's the Valley of the Temples near Agrigento, Sicily. We did Sicily on our own in late April-early May, and this was one of our stops. Loved Sicily!

There is a nice beach not far from the town, you can see the water from the archeological park. The sculpture in the photo is modern.

Right! I didn't recognize the site at first as it wasn't shrouded in rain! It poured the day we visited. Lovely site in spite of that, though.

Thanks everyone. That definitely looks like it needs to go on the "travel list!"
