The Temple of Zeus at Euromos is to me the perfect ruined Greek temple.  Set in a forest of olive trees just east of the D525 highway between Selcuk (Ephesus) and Bodrum (25 km/16 miles SE of Lake Bafa, 13 km/8 miles NW of Milas), just south of the village of Selimiye (map), the Corinthian temple almost looks like a Hollywood set, except it's for real.  A shrine may have existed here from the 6th century BCE.  Believed to date from the time of Emperor Hadrian (117-138 CE), the Temple of Zeus Lepsynus and its precinct were excavated by Turkish archeologists starting in 1969. Look carefully and you'll see that some of the columns are unfluted, meaning perhaps that the temple was never finished.  Located about a mile south of the village of Selimiye, the temple area has no services, although there may be a villager selling cold drinks.  Stop for a half-hour's look if you're driving south from ?zmir or Ephesus headed for Milas, Bodrum or Marmaris.  This is actually a much larger archeological site than just the temple. The hillside to the east is littered with ruins, and if you spend an hour hiking around you can find a theater, an agora and massive defensive walls.

The Colosseum or Coliseum in Rome is the largest amphitheater ever built.  Built of concrete and sand, its construction began in A.D.72 and completed A.D,80.  It could hold between 50,000 to 80,000 spectators,  It was used for gladiatorial contests and public events such as mock sea battles, animal hunts, executions, dramas, and re-enactments of famous battles,  The outer wall is estimated to have required 3.5 million cubic feet of travertine stone which were set without mortar.  It has suffered extensive damage over the centuries mainly from earthquakes.  Two hundred forty mast corbels were positioned around the top to support a retractable awning that kept the sun and rain off spectators.  The arena comprised a wooden floor covered by sand underneath structure consisting of a two level network of tunnels and cages where gladiators and animals were held before
