Palermo is located in the southern part of the Italian peninsula and is the capital of Sicily. Its foundation dates back to about 2700 years ago, although there are many archaeological finds that show that the area was inhabited many centuries earlier. It is one of the most popular cities in Italy and countless treasures can be admired while strolling through its historic center.
For lovers of culture and churches, the historic center is full of interesting points of interest such as the Palatine Chapel, the churches of Santa Maria dell’Ammiraglio, San Giovanni dei Lebbrosi, Santa Maria degli Angeli, Santa Maria della Gancia, San Giovanni degli Eremiti, Santa Maria della Catena, San Giuseppe dei Teatin.
The Cathedral of Palermo is certainly the pride of Palermo, who come here to celebrate the most important holidays and the Holy Christmas mass. Its grandeur, as well as the countless paintings and masterpieces on its walls make it look more like a museum than a cathedral.
The International Marionette Museum, the Massimo theater and the Regional Gallery of Sicily are other points of interest that are often not included in traditional tours. For those who want to visit the city in complete tranquility, bicycles and their feet are certainly the most suitable means of transport. In this way, you will be able to admire this city full of decadent and very particular charm in complete tranquility.
The various populations that have followed one another over the centuries within its walls have left a series of indelible marks that have made it unique. Just go to the Arab quarter of Kalsa, to see with your own eyes how the atmosphere and buildings in this district have been influenced by the previous inhabitants.
To round off your visit to Palermo, you should definitely take a walk in the park of the Real Tenuta della Favorita. Park used for hunting by the Bourbon court in the 19th century is now one of the most enchanting and ideal places to spend hours of rest reading a good book and enjoying the rays of the warm sun of this Sicilian island.
