Unfortunately, not much remains of the temple. If you're already there, you can take a look. But it's not worth making a special trip just for it.

I actually expected more ancient sites in Syracuse, so I'm particularly pleased about these artifacts, as most of the sights date from much later eras.

The ruins of the Temple of Apollo are one of the first sights encountered upon entering Ortigia, the oldest part of the city of Syracuse. It is of great importance as it marks the transition from wooden to stone construction of temples in Sicily.

Ortygia welcomes visitors to the island with the ruins of the Temple of Apollo, dating back to the early 6th century BC. Originally a Christian basilica, it was used by the Arabs as a mosque and converted back into a Christian church by the Normans. You can admire the archaeological site from the outside, as the interior is closed to the public.

By now, riding this road is a pleasure, it was recently paved! So you pedal in total silence, you don't see a car go by, in this total silence you only hear the scraping of the bike chain!! It's worth trying!!

Very suggestive panoramic point and entrance to the Cava Grande del Cassibile Nature Reserve.

It's open again: Beautiful corner, even if the descent from the car park is not easy, but they are apparently currently working on renewing the path (as of October 2024). Jumping in and lying around is allowed, it's great fun. On the way back you can take a long walk and enjoy magnificent views down into the gorge, after another climb you cross the road back to the car park. Entrance fee at the top: adults 2€, children 1€, parking 4€, worth it! Arrival from Syracuse approx. 45m

In Noto, not far from some churches that have made Sicilian Baroque famous throughout the world, there is a remarkable open-air velodrome. It is named after Paolo Pilone, a now deceased track cyclist. It can be experienced more or less always and in every way: not infrequently, children play football inside the track, on which anyone can take a ride.
