Amazing how tall people were back then.

To be fair, I don't think this is the only preserved temple of the ancient world?

The Temple of Portunus is another... so is the one to Hercules Victor and the Pantheon...

Only completely preserved temple. Except the Temple of Hephaistos in Athens.

Not to mention that completely preserved is a difficult term to use in these cases. E.g. for the Maison Carrée in Nîmes the dedicatory inscription is missing.
