Where East meets West and the two worlds combine to make a magical, aromatic and charming place to holiday. There's every kind of influence here - from the early Greek Phoenicians to the Romans, Arabs, Islamic community on to the Normans, Spanish and Austrians - everyone has had a time and space here and left with it some part of their own culture and existence.
Famous for its animated puppets - filled with expression and beautifully painted, Sicilian carts, painted pottery, vases, wall plates and jugs - all typical and worth taking home what you can. There's a multitude of copper and tin items too - you'll find these on Via Calderai.
There are four main markets operating in the town - each with plenty of character - browse and enjoy the occasion.
The Royal Park of Tenuta della Favourite lies immediately outside the city centre and was once used as a hunting ground during the Bourbon period. Exotic plant life, flowers, statues and small squares all entwine around the Palace which was built in oriental style.
Be sure to give the botanical gardens a visit too - standing on 11 hectares - here you will see plant life from all over the world with 12,000 vegetable species. Amazing and relaxing place to stroll around.
Top up with the gastronomic delights in the evening, glass of wine, pleasant chatter and then head for the squares where you can join the youthful festive fever - music, fun and laughter.
