I was fortunate enough to get a Classical Alice Dal about two years ago, what an incredible girl! Her name is Lavender.
This temple is the best preserved of the Temple Valley, in fact one of the most complete anywhere.
The ancient city of Akragas was once one of the largest of Greek settlements.
Today it has largely returned to nature, though the temples, built in the Doric style and often dramatically poised on the hill top, survive and give the current name of this Archaelogical park;- The Valley of the Temples', just outside the modern city of Agrigento.

The ancient city of Miletus was once served by four separate harbours, but over the centuries they were gradually filled by silt from the Menderes river, leaving the site somewhat barren and landlocked, and eventually abandoned.
There was a settlement here as far back as 2000 BC but most of the existing ruins are of the Roman period.
The site suffers from some neglect and exposure in this remote location, with some areas affected by flooding during the winter months.
The most imposing sight is the great amphitheatre, entered through a system of tunnels and galleries and latterly crowned by a small medieval fortress.
There are substantial ruins of the Agora area with a partially reconstructed colonnade, and the Baths of Empress Faustina.
An imposing market gate was removed from the site by German archaeologists in the late 19th century and magnificently reassembled in the Pergamon Museum in Berlin, where it can still be seen.

The ancient Greek Doric temple of Poseidon at Cape Sounion, Greece, 444–440 BC. Standing on a 200 ft high cape the temple of Poseidon is a landmark visible from Greek ferries from Pireus to the Greek Islands.
The temple of Poseidon at Sounion was constructed in 444–440 BC. This was during the ascendancy of the Athenian statesman Pericles, who also rebuilt the Parthenon in Athens. It was built on the ruins of a temple dating from the Archaic period. The design of the peripteros temple is a typical hexastyle, with a front portico with six Doric columns, and 8 columns down each side, of which 16 stand today.

Built in 1932-1933, this Classical Revival and Art Deco-style building was designed by Albert Anthony Ten Eyck Brown, Alfredo Barili, Jr., J. W. Humphreys, and James A. Wetmore and constructed by the New Deal-era Work Projects Administration to serve as a Federal Office Building and Post Office Annex for Atlanta, Georgia. The building is clad in stone with a hipped green terra cotta tile roof, a large base with a more slender central section that rises to eight stories, six-over-six double-hung windows, Classical and Art Deco details, including fluted pilasters and geometric reliefs, main entrance doors below metal screens and relief panels with Classical and Art Deco motifs, and plazas atop sunken podiums at the east and west ends of the building. The building was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 2006. Today, it is known as the Martin Luther King, Jr. Federal Building, and houses various federal offices.
