Syracuse

An hour from Catania, and almost twice as long from Taormina, lies the city of Syracuse, one of the richest in culture and history. From Neapolis (with its Greek theater and the Ear of Dionysius) to the stunning Ortygia (a maze of alleys and historic monuments reflecting centuries of Greek, Roman, and Byzantine influences), from the Fountain of Arethusa to the Temple of Apollo, to the Castle of Maniace; a dive into history and the past where you constantly realize you're before timeless, unique, and unforgettable beauty!
