Best of Sicily

#weekendgetaways All of Sicily is such an extraordinary holiday destination. And palermo happens to be the cultural , arts and tourism flag bearer. A city in the south of Italy, this place offers holiday goers excellent gastronomy, historical and cultural gems. Infact, sometimes it might even be a good idea to skip Rome and head straight to Palermo for a Sicilian holiday. If architecture and photography is your thing. You've run into a treasure chest, when in Palermo. It is impossible to count all these rich villas, palaces or churches. Some of them interestingly were mosques in the past. Done with amazing mosaics that are living traces of Arab and Norman domination in the past. The architecture of Palermo perfectly depicts this cultural mix. The plaermatian markets are also an experience to remember. The fair is the heart and soul of every town in Sicily. If you want to see what the real everyday life of local people looks like and become a part of it, a visit to one of the local bazaars is an absolute must.#weekendgetaways #italy #sicily #palermo
