Day 2 - Taormina

Approaching Taormina, I recommend that you find parking in this public area, the closest to the city center which is pedestrian.

Just the time of check-in at the hotel and leave your luggage, to immerse yourself in the beautiful Taormina!

Welcome to the Greek Roman Theater of Taormina! Below I am also attaching the in-depth izi.TRAVEL audioguide on the Archaeological Park of Naxos and the Theater of Taormina. Good stay and good discovery of this incredible monument! Here is also a 3D reconstruction for you!

Breathe in history and tradition! The building houses the Tourist Information Office on the ground floor, where, among other things, a collection of Sicilian puppets and a stylized prickly pear plant are exhibited; while on the first floor there is the Museum of Popular Arts and Traditions

Hidden and little known, this Roman Odeon is worth a stop! Much smaller than the famous Greek Theater, the Odeon was built under the Roman Empire, probably in the 2nd century AD. Currently the Odeon is not used for city events but is used during the Christmas period as a backdrop for the living nativity scene.

Now enjoy a nice lunch in the center!

Continue your cultural walk in the name of art! Masterpiece of Sicilian Gothic art with characteristic elements from the Arab and Norman periods. An integral part of the walls of Taormina, today it is the seat of the foundation dedicated to the painter and sculptor of granite Giuseppe Mazzullo.

Get ready to breathe the Sicilian sky aboard the cable car that connects the center of Taormina to Isola Bella! Immerse yourself in the blue between the sky and the sea of ​​Sicily!

And now enjoy a healthy and well-deserved relaxation on one of the most beautiful and evocative beaches in Sicily!

Stop at the hotel, just enough time for a shower before dinner!

And now, let's return to Taormina, for a wonderful fish dinner and a walk around the village in the night!

Rest in the hotel, tomorrow is the turn for Syracuse! The most beautiful greek city, as it was described by the latin writer Cicero at the end of the I century BC, is waiting for you!
