Sicily
is a
place unlike any other in Italy. It is a place of myth,
magic, romance and sun. Inevitably, it will
cast a spell on you. Be
prepared.
Sicily, throughout history has
been a place where more cultures have converged
than any other in Europe. From the
Arabs who first settled there, to the Greeks,
the Romans and
the Normans, Sicily has been a melting pot
and battle ground of culture, tradition, art and
architecture. The ruins, located throughout Sicily
are numerous, vast and incredible that lay
testament to centuries of
history and culture that has
created the intensely unique and
complex society which makes up
this land today.
Sicily may be more interesting
to those who
enjoy adventures off the "beaten path".
It may be difficult in some respects for visitors to
navigate the island, but the tourist
information system is getting
progressively better. It
is well worth the risk to dive right into
Sicilian culture, for what
awaits a guest in this rich Italian province is
nothing short of magic. |

It takes approximately seven
hours by train from
Naples to arrive in Sicily and
about ten hours from
Rome. If taking the train
to Sicily from places such as Rome or
Florence, it
is advised for those who can sleep on the train,
to take a night train which has beds. However, if
you are travelling by car, it is to your
advantage, for the travelling time will be faster
and you will have access to inland Sicilian
villages and towns that are otherwise
inaccessible.
If you'd rather not drive, you
will find that train and bus services throughout Sicily
are quite good, with stops at all major towns
and cities. |
