302 Temple of Bel before its destruction in August 2015, Palmyra - Syria

            (From Wikipedia)
The Temple of Bel (Arabic: معبد بل‎) was an ancient stone ruin located in Palmyra, Syria. The temple, consecrated to the Semitic god Bel, worshipped at Palmyra in triad with the lunar god Aglibol and the sun god Yarhibol, formed the center of religious life in Palmyra and was dedicated in 32 CE. Its ruins were considered among the best preserved at Palmyra. The temple was at least partially destroyed by the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant in August 2015.
