This was a great day adventure from Naples and/or Salerno. Mostly flat walking area that shows Greek ruins and architecture dating back over 2000-2500 BC. Drive was easy and your travel down the Italian Coast from Salerno. Plenty of opportunities to stop and enjoy the beach along the way. Of note, there were no areas to sit rest inside archaeological area unless you sat on the ground. Area is fairly large and pet friendly with ample grass for your dog. Museum was less impressive. Definitely recommend visiting this site while in the area.

This is one of the most incredible places I’ve visited in Italy. There are three standing Greek temples and the ruins of part Greek and part Roman town. It is remarkable to see so many Greek artifacts in the museum as well.

Really enjoyed this park. We were surprised by how well preserved the big temples are. Only downside was finding a car park. We parked around by the train station for free and walked maybe 10 to 15mins to the entrance.

Absolute hidden gem. Not busy and 3 huge temples that have been there for ~2,500 years. Visit before Pompei so you get to enjoy the sheer scale of the temples and then the broader township.

Much better and bigger than I expected. Definitely not to miss when you’re in the area. Need at least 1 hour but 2-3 hour’s minimum is best. Really interesting not just for the massive main structures but also the history of the totally ruined areas like arenas and amphitheatre. Also the museum is very good. I recommend buying the small guide book. in Nov 2023 it was only 6 Euro.

Awesome archaeological park, with good signage in English and easy to navigate around the park. I spent 5 hours going through most of the sites and the museum across the road. Don’t forget the museum across the road. Great area for local survenirs.

DON'T ENTER! just watch from the outside 15€ per person. Money that would have been well spent if the site was actually being maintained. Half of the trail was simply hidden behind grass so tall you could not even identify the rocks. The audio guide is decent and free via the app, but points to stuff you just cannot see The standing temples are astounding but the whole site is basically those 3, which you can easily see from the outside while listening to the audio guide Don't gift money to these thieves, they will embezzle them rather than paying the lawn mowers
