NaxosTemple of Apollo

A massive marble gateway stands alone on a rocky islet connected to the main harbor. Four huge columns form a perfect frame against the deep blue waters of the Aegean Sea. Salty winds constantly sweep across this bare ancient foundation.

This colossal doorway is the only surviving piece of an unfinished temple dedicated to Apollo. Travelers walk across the narrow causeway each evening to watch the sun align within its frame. Watching the warm light fill this stone portal grounds you deeply in the history of the island.
