SOUTHEAST OF ANDRITSENA, GREECE: The wonder of Basse

Soars to a height of 1130 meters, in a wonderful position in the southern slope of Mount Likeon. To me-that I know always-it remains the most beautiful temple of Greece. If your journey in my homeland is coming don’t forget the Temple of Basse. It was erected in honor of Apollo, but that Doric hexastyle periptero has (for us all) the number of his columns, almost entirely with architraves. When you enter in its central compartment, let yourself go to a particular emotion: looking through the eyes of the soul its relief frieze. Those scenes of Centauromachy and Amazonomachy, timeless, will accompany you for a long time. Hello, by Anatolios.
