Today we visited the ancient site of Selinunte on Scilly. The Jupiter temple was very impressive. When the site was picked, the people knew what they were doing, as it is sited just above an amazing white beach. But what was perhaps more amazing for me were all the wild flowers that really livened the site up. I have visited many Greek and roman sites before, but mostly in high summer, in the scorching heat. Other than the Jupiter temple the site is mostly a pile of scatted stones, but with the wild flowers, it made for a very interesting hike. I can really recommend a visit to this site to anyone.
