Agrigento

General view of the Temple of Concord, 5th century BC, and surrounding landscape, Agrigento, Sicily, Italy, pictured on September 11, 2009, against a dramatic sunset. Well preserved owing to its 6th century AD conversion to a church, the Temple of Concord is a typical example of optical correction whose tapering columns create the illusion of a perfectly aligned building. The Valley of the Temples is a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Picture by Manuel Cohen
