Taormina
The beauty of Taormina has charmed artists and tourists over the centuries, who have admired and still admire “the landscape in which one can find all that seems created on earth to seduce eyes, mind and imagination” (Guy de Maupassant). Goethe, Dumas and De Amicis extolled the town as well.
Coveted by many population for its strategic position, it was a stronghold and an important trading station in the Mediterranean Basin. Situated between the valleys of the rivers Alcantara and Agrò and the Mount Etna, the Peloritani Mountain and the enchanting coast, the town is said to lie between earth and sky.
Following the construction of streets linking the coast and the town in the XX century, Taormina has turned out to be an international tourist destination. So, whether your ideal holiday is going sightseeing and discovering the idyllic and most remote places of the town, or you are fun-loving and search for clubs and pubs, whether you are an autograph hunter or you collect souvenirs, be sure that Taormina will make your wishes come true.
