Having been the crossroads of civilisations for millennia, Palermo delivers a heady, heavily spiced mix of Byzantine mosaics, Arabesque domes and frescoed cupolas.
If it weren’t called Corleone, this small, quaint town would appear as one of many others of the Sicilian hinterland - groups of elderly people strolling in a semi-deserted square, rows of low sand-coloured houses and a 16th-century church on the highest hill.
Beautiful Cefalù. One of Siciliy's finest beaches side-by-side with one of its greatest Arab-Norman architectural masterpieces.
Teatro Massimo. Taking over 20 years to complete, Palermo's neoclassical opera house is the largest in Italy and the second-largest in Europe.
