The Sicilian city of Baroloc, where the scent of chocolate spreads

#EuropeanTravel Modica, Italy๐Ÿ‡ฎ๐Ÿ‡น A hidden pearl in the Ragusa region of Sicily, **Modica** is a quaint city on a beautiful hill. With its gorgeous Baroque architecture and ancient chocolate tradition, every step is like a sweet journey. โ›ช๏ธ Chiesa di San Giorgio The symbol of the upper city of Modica! The Basilica of San Giorgio is a masterpiece of Sicilian Baroque from the 18th century, with its beige-cream faรงade shining brightly on the hill. As you climb the steps from the lower city, this beautiful cathedral welcomes you at the top. โ›ช๏ธ Duomo di San Pietro At the lower part of the city is another gem, the Basilica of San Pietro. On both sides of the steps at the entrance to the cathedral, there are 12 statues of apostles, and the splendid decorations and sculptures overwhelm the viewer. Along with San Giorgio on the upper level, it is called the twin cathedral of Modica. ๐Ÿซ Corso Umberto I A wide street that runs through the center of Modica. Baroque buildings and medieval architecture line the street, and it is a street where both locals and tourists enjoy walking and shopping. ๐Ÿฐ Castello dei Conti di Modica A medieval castle on a hill overlooking the city. It was the residence of the counts who ruled the Modica region from the 13th century, and is now a viewpoint where you can enjoy the city's history and beautiful scenery. ๐Ÿซ Bonajuto, a must-see for chocolate lovers Modica is famous, above all, as the city of chocolate!
