Taormina – Sicily, Italy
The hilltop town of Taormina overlooks the eastern coast of Sicily with sweeping views across the Ionian Sea and the slopes of Mount Etna. For centuries the town has attracted travelers drawn to its dramatic setting and historic monuments.
One of the most famous landmarks is the Ancient Theatre of Taormina, a spectacular amphitheater originally built by the Greeks and later expanded by the Romans. From its stone seats visitors can see both the coastline and the distant volcanic peak of Mount Etna.
Taormina remains one of the most scenic and historic towns in all of Sicily.
