Greece, Sounion
Home to the superb Temple of Poseidon, this ancient Athenian sanctuary was a monument in honour of the ocean that had brought Greece victory over the Persians, and made Athens wealthy as it expanded its naval empire. The striking location is a fitting place to honour Poseidon, lord of the sea.
