We managed to book tickets to go to the Hypogeum near Paola.
The Hypogeum is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is the only prehistoric underground temple in the world. It was discovered in 1902 when workers cutting cisterns for a new housing development cut though its roof.
Only 80 people are allowed in each day (10 on each tour) to preserve the temple and to avoid CO2 damage it is therefore best to book a month in advance to ensure a place.
