Enormous sections of stone columns abandoned mid manufacture. Fascinating.

Quarry used in ancient times to prepare stones for temple constructiin
Amazing place. Worth go visit.
Great site if your an archaeologist and pretty interesting if you have an interest in old stuff. Seems a bit past it's tourist peak but the paths are maintained and the park is great being so empty. Easy to explore and have the place to yourselves!
A very quiet place in the country outside Selenunte which was in ancient times the quarry for stone for the temples of that city. The huge drums for the columns of these buildings were cut from solid rock. When the city was sacked ( I think by Hannible who was a bit of a bother boy in bygone times) the workers just downed tools and headed for the hills. As you would. In several places column drums have just been left abandoned where they lay. Others are still partially cut from the rock but never finished. The site seems little visited and is ideal for a picnic. There is a parking area outside the site and easy walking paths. It is best visited by car though I believe some local tours also take it in. If you have time for some peace and quiet, check it out.
