View of sunset at the Temples of Paestum. The main features of the site today are the standing remains of three major temples in Doric style, dating from the first half of the 6th century BC. These were dedicated to Hera and Athena, although they have traditionally been identified as a basilica and temples of Neptune and Ceres, owing to 18th-century mis-attribution.

Kitchen fresco showing the signs of abundance and the vivid red.
Life returns to Pompeii in the spring between the 2 roman columns of this villa. The quiet and peace of Pompeii is striking.
Close-up of a statue holding up the roof of the Roman bath in Pompeii. The detail is still amazing and some of the frescoe color is still apparent as well.
