#summerdestinations I had an amazing time visiting the Archaeological Site of Sounion during my summer vacation! 🏛️ Located about an hour's drive from Athens, this site is home to the Temple of Poseidon, perched on a cliff overlooking the Aegean Sea. The entrance fee is around €8, which is a small price to pay for such a breathtaking view and a deep dive into ancient history. The temple itself is beautifully preserved, and the panoramic views of the sea from the site are absolutely stunning. It’s an ideal spot to watch the sunset, as the colors over the Aegean are simply magical. 🌅 After exploring the site, I enjoyed a meal at a nearby seaside taverna, savoring fresh seafood while soaking in the views. The surrounding area is also worth exploring, with its charming local shops and beautiful coastal scenery. Overall, the Archaeological Site of Sounion is a must-visit for anyone interested in history and natural beauty. It offers a perfect blend of ancient wonder and spectacular vistas. #trip #Sounion #TempleOfPoseidon #AncientGreece #AegeanViews #TravelAdventure

Amazing experience! I booked an excursion to visit the Temple Of Poseidon at sunset! I was blown away by how magical watching the sunset was right from the temple! There are quite long queues to get your ticket to enter but once you do there is lots of space for people to take their photographs with the sunset backdrop! Last entry in spring is 7:15pm so ensure that you have your tickets at the ready before the but off time so that you don’t miss out! There is a bar/restaurant and also a souvenir shop at the entrance to the temple. I would 100% recommend visiting this attraction! If you can, at sunset! #Athens #Temple #templeofposeidon #Greece #Attraction #Athensattraction #Sunset #sunsetspot#History #Greekmythology #Greekgods #Travel #Adventure #Sun #capesounion #amazing #Wanderlust #historicallandmarks #familytrip #solotrip #Architecture #sea #view #views #sunsets #Holiday #Travelwithjessiee

#traveldiaries Just got back from an incredible day trip to Cape Sounion, and it’s a must-see if you're visiting Athens! 🏛️ The Temple of Poseidon sits right on the edge of the cliff, with the Aegean Sea stretching endlessly below. The entrance fee is around 10 euros, but trust me, it’s worth every cent. Standing among the ancient ruins, especially at sunset, is nothing short of magical 🌅. The golden light hitting the columns while the waves crash below is something I’ll never forget. There’s also a small beach nearby where I took a quick dip—it’s not too crowded, and the water is crystal clear. Afterward, I grabbed a coffee at a taverna with a sea view. It’s about an hour’s drive from Athens, and you can stop by the Lavrio port if you have time. Cape Sounion is perfect for history lovers and anyone who wants to experience a little slice of ancient Greece with stunning views. #trip #CapeSounion #TempleOfPoseidon #GreeceSunset #AegeanBeauty #AthensDayTrip
