Catania has learnt how to live with the volcano. Its presence is felt everywhere with hardened remains of past lava flows and volcanic ash down the streets from most recent eruptions. We will walk down Via Etnea, the main avenue of the the Baroque City and visit the Duomo , Bellini Gardens and Bellini Opera House.
Taormina, the ancient Taurominum, is a spot of
infinite loveliness, the land of Dolce far niente - of sweet do
nothing. The town lies in an elevated position of amazing, almost unique
beauty, affording magnificent views combining sea and sky of a
marvelous blue, miles of a curving coastline and picturesque mountain
scenery, while the majestic pyramid of Mt. Etna on one side constitutes a
scene of indescribable beauty. Upon arrival we will visit the most
impressive monument of the city: the Greco-Roman Theatre.
It has the finest site of any theatre in the world and one of the most
striking monuments of antiquity. We continue our walking tour to the Villa Comunale:
the public gardens which are planted with a huge variety of flowering
plants and shrubs ranging from the most common to the exotic, your guide
will be able to describe you all the botanical curiosity.
