    I learned about Paestum in 1975 in a classical Greek architecture class i took, I decided then and there that one day I would go there. In 2019 I did and fell in love with the site and the surrounding area. The walk from the train station to the temple grounds is down a cobble stone road built by the Romans..its about a 30 minute walk..the road is surrounded by farm land and is within the defensive walls built by the Romans...a real step back into time...it must be pretty much as it was in Greek times..the temples surrounded by farm land. For me this was much more impressive than the ruins in Rome and without the crowds. Worth the train ride..Naples is near by also. The Portasirena Agriculturismo is a great hotel and about a 45 minute walk to the temples; we paid $80/night off season and worth every cent of it...look it up before you visit. Enjoy

    Spent a day there this summer...simply incredible! Had the place to ourselves for most of the time and everything was accessible.

    Related to "the so-called Hera II," are we positive that it's for Hera? Maybe Hera I was and II was (a gift) for Zeus.. Maybe there's just no way of knowing. I love and hate the room history leaves for speculation. It'd be nice to know everything, but we don't truly need to.

      If I remember correctly, there is little certainty regarding the naming conventions currently associated with the buildings.

      @@smarthistory-art-history That's fair enough. Thank you for (not?) clarifying, lol. :)
