Palazzo Biscari

Palazzo Biscari in Catania stands tall at the end of Via Museo Biscari. Dating back to the 17th century, the palace belongs to the noble Paternò Castello family. A museum with a vast collection of works by Ignazio V also finds a place here within the palace. Moreover, the interior of this Roccoco structure is characterized by frescoes and stuccos of renowned artists such as Sebastiano Lo Monaco and Matteo Desiderato.

Mount Etna

Situated on Sicily's sun-drenched eastern coast, Mount Etna is one of Europe's highest active volcano. At its peak, the volcano measures 10,900 feet (3,320 meters). For millennia, Mount Etna has been wreathed in legend; the Greeks believed that Typhon, a fire-breathing monster was trapped under its lava-filled craters by Zeus. The volcano's main craters and numerous fissure vents shoot glowing red fountains into the air at irregular intervals, a spectacle that illuminates the night sky whenever it erupts. Due to the fertile volcanic soil, the island's undulating slopes feature rows of vineyards and produce excellent wine and fruit cultivated by local villagers.

Piazza del Duomo

Magnificent buildings such as the Cattedrale di Sant'Agata, the Palazzo del' Elefante and the Palazzo dei Chierici surround the Piazza del Duomo, which is the square in the center of the town. The distinctive landmark here is the elephant fountain which represents an elephant made of lava with an obelisk on its back.

Chiesa di San Nicolò All'Arena

A large church, Chiesa di San Nicolò All'Arena is a unique Sicilian church. Its uniqueness lies in the fact that it is an incomplete construction that was frequently interrupted by earthquakes. Defined by a very simple facade with almost bare interiors that houses an incredible organ, the church stands as an ancient religious edifice. Adjacent to the church is a monastery that houses a library and is worth exploring. All in all, though not a fanciful site, it portrays a religious aura that is quite appealing.

Catania Cathedral

A beautiful baroque church building, Catania Cathedral at the city's main shopping area is an incredible example of Catanian architecture. The sights explored at the church reflect a perfect mix of ancient and modern planning. The intricate wall carvings, the majestic columns, the pastel statues that decorate the corners of the edifice are all equally impressive. Easily recognizable by its elaborate grandeur, the church stands as an epitome of grace and elegance.

Via dei Crociferi

Via dei Crociferi is a beautiful street in Catania, Italy characterized by Baroque-style structures. The street is in the middle of famous churches and monasteries and can be reached by treading under the San Benedetto arch. It is absolutely lovely for a morning walk or an evening stroll and you could sample various delicacies at local restaurants along the way.
