Palermo
Catacombs
Venture deep beneath the city and explore the Catacombs of the Capuchins. These immaculately preserved tombs were the property of the sixteenth-century Capuchin monastery and have become one of Palermo
Theatre Massimo
One of the first opera houses in the world, the Theatre Massimo is still putting on shows today. A mecca for fans of opera and the performing arts, this elegant cultural arena has hosted Pavarotti among others in its 121-year history. This is a treat you will have to book well-before the holiday, but this little bit of extra forward planning will be well worth it in the end.
Palermo Cathedral
Holidays to Sicily are not complete without a trip to Palermo Cathedral. Built around 600 AD, the cathedral is the jewel of the city. As the settlement evolved under different rulers from neighbouring continents, so did the cathedral, with small additions here and there as the years passed. The result is a structure which incorporates architecture from many of the movements of the last two millennium from Roman to Moorish, to Gothic and Baroque. For history nerds, deep within the cathedral you can find thirteenth century crown of Constance of Aragon, the Holy Roman Empress. The cathedral is a stunning introduction or a fitting conclusion to any Palermo trip, representing all that the city has to offer in art and culture.
