Archaeological Site Temple of Aphrodite Hermes - Archaeological Site Temple of Aphrodite Hermes

Le lieu est magnifique, le trajet pour y accéder est pittoresque et vaut le coup d'œil, l'occasion d'une belle balade. Cependant le site ne dispose d'aucune information, ou indications. Dommage

Отличное место, чтобы побыть одному, наслаждаясь видами гор. Не раскручено и бесплатно.

Ob sich der lange Weg über steile Serpentinen lohnt, das muss wohl jeder für sich entscheiden. Aber man hat eine schöne Aussicht über das Libysche Meer.

Accès au site par une magnifique route de montagne avec vue sur le sommet enneigé du Ditki. Il faut prendre un chemin rocailleux sur la droite à l'endroit où la route de transforme en piste et ne pas continuer par la piste qui monte. On arrive à l'entrée du site par une porte qui était ouverte. Très bel endroit avec les vestiges du temple traversés par des ruisseaux de montagne et calme absolu.

Interesting

To enjoy such site one needs a bit of imagination. But it's the first time I was able to actually explore the ruins myself without having to follow the signs.. Empty, mysterious.. I loved it. The road is generally good, only the last bit is not asfalted, but it's close enough to the main road to walk. The views are stunning too.

Very special place, unfortunately government doesnt care about hellenic legacy. Magnificent sigthview , the temple is inside a forest

The route to the temple precinct is a little bit of a mission. If you've reached the dirt road you've gone too far. But just before the asphalt disappears there is a sign on the right hand side of the road with a gravel road that turns right, from here you can see the bottom fenced boundary of the site. This is the entrance point and a minutes drive from this point along the gravel road will situate you outside the entry gate. The site is not guarded, other Than a boundary fence which encircles the complex. There are no entry fees nor do I think there is any sort of opening hours. The entry gate is unlocked. The site is beautiful and there are no markings as to what is where, but take your time to scramble across the old foundations of the temple and surrounding buildings, enjoy the holy spring which literally leaks the freshest, coldest water into a stream which runs through the ruins itself. It is a wonderful experience to able to explore without boundiaries the ancient foundations, and with the old ostraki (pottery shards) literally strewn across the ground you can play archeologist and historian at the same time. The air is perfumed with pine and earth and the road to the site is beautiful (and sometimes quite winding). I loved the experience immensely.
