"Sicily is the country of oranges, a flower- filled land whose scent permeates the air at springtime….Yet what makes it a truly unique place in this world and one everyone should visit is the fact that, from one end to the other, the isle may be defined as a rather strange, divine museum of architecture" G. de Maupassant

 

Agrigento

In the city of Agrigento there are cultural, environmental and priceless treasures. Between the streets of the city centre and the towns nearby there is baroque architecture, arabic legacy, castles and ancient churches. By visiting Agrigento, we’ll discover places and monuments as the Santo Spirito Monastery, built in XIII century and the Saint Gerlando Cathedral, built in 1094.

Scala dei Turchi

The naturalistic monument which made Agrigento famous is the Scala dei Turchi. The unique beauty of this rocky cliff is due to the white colour of the calcareous staircase. The Scala dei Turchi is a naturalistic sight and because of its shape and beauty it has inspired many writers.

Valle dei Templi

A famous sight of Agrigento is the Valle dei Templi. It is part of the herigate of UNESCO and it’s perfectly preserved and in it there are the ruins of the ancient city of Akragas and many dorian temples which date back to the Hellenic Age. In the park there are holy places, necropolis, part of an hellenic and roman district and other structures. Among the monuments there are almond trees and centennial olive trees.
The archaeological park of the Valle dei Templi is the biggest park in the world.
