Paestum

Paestum is a Greek gem in the heart of the Amalfi coast. The gleaming white marble of ancient temples dating back to the 6th century BC, set against the dark brown hills and deep blue sea, provide a unique experience in Italy. Today, the preserved temple of Hera II (once believed to be the Temple of Poseidon) is one of three temples of which is composed the archaeological site. (See also the temple of Hera I) Part of the interior is a colonnade with two rows of columns, including the superimposed upper level which supported the roof, therefore illustrates the standard Doric form: 6 columns on the end and 14 columns on the side. We warmly suggest you to hire a guide to fully enjoy the archaeological site and the nearby museum.
