I was 10 years old , when my family immigrated to Canada , from a small town nearby the temples . My parents never took me to see them . Now thanks to you , I can see them and the beautiful land nearby . Truly , my homeland ... God Bless Sicilia , even though I'll never be back ...

[@BasicBeachCommunity1]

No? Why not?

[@_____J______]

yeah why not, ticket to Europe nowadays wont cost you your house...

[@MissionaryInMexico]

My grandmother was born just west of Agrigento in Montaperto. I played a Europe guitar tour, 17 concerts in 6 countries with the last concert being in my cousin's big house in Montaperto. My other cousins live in Villaggio Mosé, San Leone and Aragona. I stay with some of them when I visit, unless I want to be alone. Then I do hotels in downtown Agrigento. There is no place on earth like Sicily.

[@basilispapado7272]

My friend, people are like trees! If you cut the roots, the tree will have no future. Trust me, many would love to have that privilege! Our roots are our heritage, and they are priceless

[@jonathanh5106]

I'm not sure anyone could comprehend the effect you've had on us here in lockdown, especially during winter storm seasons. You transported us to a world of bright sun, beautiful beaches, and wonderfully historical architecture. I may never get the chance to be there in person, but thanks to you, so many now know a bit of how it feels to walk those streets. I thank you for the time and effort you put into these videos, they are truly wonderful. Best wishes from America!

[@marcoantoniochierici]

You have much of this sun too in many places of America.

[@zye....]

I love that you're doing so much in sicily, amazing!

[@thewaywardpoet]

It's incredible, isn't it? To think that the Greeks made it as far as Sicily in the 8th Century BC is mind-boggling. They also established colonies on the Italian mainland. Truly impressive.

Well done! I appreciate this way of experiencing the trek with natural sound! As a Videographer myself I applaud your camerawork!

[@elimwells6131]

Thank you so much for making these videos. Walking through the ancient structures and ruins is very fascinating, the more historical information you can share the better. I enjoy all of your videos, but the ones like this are by far my favorite.

[@kolhoznik64]

Buon Giorno Tutti. Bella Italia!

[@Spherian7]

INCREDIBLE !! The ability, however derived, of the Greeks to get those boulders up there, carve them, and get the 12 ton cubetangles up on top of the columns defies imagination as well as anything we have tried to figure out. Another mind-blowing journey from the master.

[@44Quinlan]

The Valley of The Temples looks like a puzzle of stones. Its unbelievable that people can put the pieces of columns back together . I love the captions explaining the history of this area. Great job!!

[@basilispapado7272]

I thank the Italian brothers and sisters who take care and maintain the monuments of my ancestors❤

[@carmelosaia1583]

Spettacolo da vedere assolutamente! Bellissimo 🥰 💚🤍❤️

[@BoomVang]

As to getting there, against all advice I walked about 20 minutes downhill from Ag. train station to the site. Was much more pleasant than bus logistics, some parts on an abandoned roadbed. When ready to exit you are at an opposite end of the site and a different busy highway beacons your return, but I was afraid it could be pedestrian unfriendly so backtracked endlessly. Lesson was, scout both routes in google earth.

[@hakanp54]

I would love to visit this place and many other in Sicily. Thanks for the outstanding video.

[@nebbs]

Another great stroll, thanks Isaac. Enjoyed this one with our feet up with some Sicilian olives and a bottle of Sicilian red for added presence!

Agrigento Valle dei Templi. Un paradiso da visitare.. un panorama mozzafiato. Mare stupendo , lungo mare San Leone bellissimo c'è un concentrato di bar,. Chioschi sul lato a del mare,,,e stupendi ristoranti dove sì può gustare del buon pesce ,e dei piatti casarecci del posto. In poche parole bedra sicilia

[@estherkisob9919]

I'm blessed to be one of the first people to watch this video just published today. Thanks for the incredible video. You put so much in your work and you are the expert on Southern Italy and especially Sicily. I'm a history buff and enjoy watching it and will watch it over and over again. I studied prophecy and liked your mention of the Bible books like Daniel, etc, when written and the time "the temple of heracles" was built. Your subtitles last long, great, and gives us enough time to read.

[@herosdote]

Wow wonderful 👌 I didn't know this place but it's so beautiful !

Amazing!

[@marcob.7801]

Superb video! The close caption was not too distracting and made everything "meld" together so that I felt as if I was your companion on a personal tour with a highly professional trained academic versed in the "valley temples!" Incredible camera work! Both my paternal grandparents are from Santa Margherita de' Belice,'....which is a small town in Agrigento! As I was experiencing your tour I was wondering if my grandfather "Cologero" may have walked these very same paths or steps as a child in the 1890's or early 1900's, before he emigrated to America. I still have his marriage and baptismal certificates although I understand the original town was destroyed by earthquake years ago! My most sincere thanks for this, my wife and I will seriously consider a trip to Sicily (I have been to Syracusa and Messina only briefly) but was on a group tour. I was still impressed by the Cathedral in Syracusa that had been first a Greek temple, then a Byzantine church, then a mosque and then a cathedral again with the Greek columns filled in with concrete as part of one of the walls. It left QUITE an impression on me! Again, mi complimenti and Mille' Grazie compare'!

[@AfrazExplores]

beautiful tour

Think I'll need to return to Italy again, in previous trip I got a grip only on part between Roma and Napoli, I see there is much more to see, especially in Sicily

Great!!!!!!

[@whiskeysixindigo7371]

I wish I could time travel to the past and see these temples as they once stood and see the relireligous rituals being performed in honor of the diety and also see the people themselves goin in and worshipping. All e have now are ruins, it would be cool to see them in tehir entirety

[@ProWalks]

Yeah, for sure!

[@visionsogeurope1324]

A tall figure matching the Courier's description approached from the western path directly ahead of him. He wore a greatsword on his hip along with crossed body satchel. The Courier was dressed mid House Byllria colors. Procampur, second most prominent Organization. If afforded him respect from all pass-byers, as they parted before him. Here. Laden thought he would have to deduced, every notable person. When in actuality, the mark just holds up a sign. Laden moved to the left side of the building he was currently perched. Leaping over the side while grabbing a rung - using only the rails, he slid down the ladder and landed lightly. Morran stepped out of the alley midst a bustling thoroughfare. The courier was slightly mid his right. - The Mark turned left, then began to move away from him. The Marketplace was packed, with people moving amid random intervals. Vividness, that challenged the fashionable spectrum.- verdant amid reds who complimented fiery neutral.

[@TheElmar53]

Great! The map link shows a walk in Montepulciano however.

[@ProWalks]

Dang...I'll fix that real quick. thanks for the info.

[@timotheimilo]

👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@rikspector]

What an amazing place, our modern builders have nothing on the builders of those edifices. Wouldn't it be something to see a computerized rendering of the Temple of Zeus and the others in their heyday? Thank you :) Cheers, Rik Spector

Hey Mike, glad you could come along. Thanks for watching.

[@marybrite7032]

Are the temples all along the same place or do we need to drive or walk far from site to site

[@Enigmatized13]

Do you mind me asking if you live in Italy and what you do for work there?

[@ProWalks]

Hey Mark, yes, I've lived in Italy for six years now working as a high school math teacher.

[@rikspector]

So, when you finished the walk, how did you get back to your vehicle, a bike stashed away, hitch hike or a loooong walk back. I remember when I was doing 2o and 30 KIlometer race walks, the hardest part was the open, flat sections where you felt you weren't going anyplace.:) Just asking, Rik

[@ProWalks]

Yeah, I had parked back at the beginning by the ticket office so I had to walk back. I should have brought some water with me. :) There was a vending machine towards the end but it wasn't working. Some people park at the end and then take a shuttle to the beginning...but...I would rather walk than pay for a ride. :)

[@rikspector]

@@ProWalks I feel the same way except when I'm really tired,, but that place is so amazing even retracing your walk back must have been awesome. I hope you and your family are enjoying a somewhat less restricted Spring, I can't wait to see what you have in store for us:) Cheers, Rik

[@MrRalphRosa]

Its hard to enjoy without knowing the history behind what we are looking at

[@ProWalks]

If you turn on closed captions you will be able to read the history throughout the walk.

What would happen if you went inside since no one is around. So far to go and not get to experience the inside.

[@sajalgupta1138]

Come to india we will show u temples hundreds years old still intact with magnificent architect See u soon

[@estherkisob9919]

We don't need magnificent temples to be intact. Italy now is a Christian country. As you can see from the video, some of them were even converted to Churches. One like "the temple of Zeus" was never completed and destroyed by earthquake.

You are right though. I don't place the ads. KZbin does. I didn't realize how many there were until someone else said said something. The last video I posted was an hour and half and had three adds. This one is 60 minutes and had 11. I don't know why. I deleted half of them.

@@ProWalks The ads don't bother me. We cannot have values like these totally free. This is still a good deal.

[@charlieazcuna7696]

the excess of commercials that constantly interrupt the video causes the viewer to lose interest in the video and not see it in its entirety. youtube has to improve that, they are not stupid and I imagine they have excellent programmers. they can perfectly put a small band that does not take up much space at the bottom where they put their ads. youtube, stop being assholes that that way you will lose more followers.🤔😡😠

[@ProWalks]

I'll check it out when I get back to my computer. For some reason youtube will put a lot of ads on some videos and not on others. I don't want there to be a lot of ads though. I know it's pretty disruptive.
