Segesta is an archaeological site on Sicily with a notable Doric temple and nearby Hellenistic theatre; the temple is often visited from the road between Trapani and Palermo.

A poetic, reflective review of the Doric temple at Segesta that links architecture, time and perception. The reviewer (serenella) evokes slow ancient time versus modern speed and references Caravaggio to discuss representation of time. Praise for the visual experience of the temple and brief travel impressions from the road between Trapani and Palermo.
