The temple of Poseidon is located at 37.65° N, 24.03° E in Attica, Greece. The temple is located on what looks like a huge cliff. The cliff looks like it could have been cause by two different types of faults, compression or expansion. I believe that it is a result from a compression fault, as you can see in this picture. With the steep cliff formed from the compression it has made visiting the temple a little tricky for visitors who are a little bit clumsy since there aren’t any guard rails. Rocks that make up the ground surrounding the temple are sedimentary rocks as you can see all of the different layers that are shown throughout the wall of rock.

One of the most amazing parts of the Temple of Poseidon is the magnificent sunrises and sunsets. These great moments of beauty are from how the earth is tilted on its axis and how it is revolving around the sun. The different color moons can be attributed to dust particles in the earths atmosphere.
