Stop At: Centro Storico di Catania, Catania, Sicily Italy
Meet our driver guide . Departure for Catania, the second biggest town in Sicily, a true lively town with a Baroque-style charm. Visit of its most important monuments and to its colourful fish-market.
Catania radiates a strange romantic beauty with its broad boulevards and spacious squares, grandiose palaces, and great cathedrals, that still striking in their black and white colors, lava and limestone, crumbling plaster, and marble columns. It was repeatedly destroyed over the centuries by eruptions and earthquakes. In 1693 a massive earthquake leveled much of the city, but the people of Catania created an even better city
Walking visit and stop in Palazzo Biscari the most magnificent private building in Catania, is unique in terms of structure, outlay and decoration. We will be received by Baron Moncada. Lunch at leisure.
