N	Nitzan Tabib on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful place, cost only 6 euro.. you must go to see the amazing view of the sea..
E	Erica Vanloon on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Wow! What a hidden gem. Perched atop a hill on a remote area of Aegina, this is such a triumph of history! Definitely a must see on the island. Don't miss the museum as well! Lots of impressive artifacts from the site in there. Your ticket to the Temple also gets you access to the museum.
A	Adam Baldacchino on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Beautiful Doric columns. Quite in tact, when compared to other temple. There are also lovely views of Aegina from there. Definitely worth the 6 euro

S	Sundar Ganesan on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Very calm compared with the Athens monuments.. and not much crowded either. Rent a scooter or car, cross through the island and enjoy it.. Overall a nice experience!
K	Karitas Mitrogogos on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I never get tired of visiting the Temple of Aphaia, one of Aegina island's must see unique attraction that is situated on a hill ... with beautiful views & lots of pine trees ... about 15 km from the islands capital. ?? Since prehistoric times ( 1300 B.C.) it's been a place of worship ... a sanctuary dedicated to the goddess Aphaia.? Next to the temple there is a small archeological museum, the Museum of Aphaia, where parts of the temple are on display. Across from the Temple you will see a simple cafeteria where I've enjoyed some beverages ... that was nice: especially if you are visiting on a hot summer day!
A	Annamária on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I fell in love with this place ? I liked it more than the Acropolis of Athens. (Although Acropolis more famous and bigger this place seems untouched) The temple is in good condition. The view incredibly amazing to me sea and the mountains ? You can go there by bus if you want,from Aegina town and Agina Marina as well. I could be alone there a little bit and I sat down a rock and just watched amazing view… and the smell of pine trees indescribable… if you are Aegina island definitely have to see it ♥️
C	Cristian Postolache on Google ★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The temple is quite well preserved. You have to pay an entrance fee of 6 euros per person. It is fenced and maintained. It was located on a higher hill overlooking the sea. The scenery is amazing. The temple is in the style of the Panthenon in Athens.
