Nearby Attractions
Royal Palace of Palermo
A wonderful mix of Norman, Arab and Byzantine styles, this majestic seat of the Kings of Sicily is among the top few attractive destinations on the island.
Palermo Cathedral
The gigantic structure dwarves everything in its sight. A masterpiece of Norman architecture and a must-see for everyone.
Catacombs of the Capuchins
These ghastly yet fascinating underground passages house over 8000 former citizens of Palermo in mummified form. A truly unique experience.
Monreale Cathedral
The Sicilians just knew how the build their churches. The domed cathedral in Monreale is another fine example of breath-taking Norman craftsmanship.
Teatro Massimo
A monumental building housing the best scene of Sicily. Surely a must-visit for fans of theatre and culture in general.
Villa Palagonia
A fascinating palace, positioned in calm pleasant gardens. Dating back to the 18th century, this photogenic villa is really worth a visit.
Politeama Theatre
The true heart of Palermo. Not only is this beautiful building home to many great music shows, but the area around it is also a vibrating social centre of the city.
Oratory of the Rosary of St. Cita
A surprisingly rich and ornate interior, in contrast to the rather dull exterior. Numerous marble statues and reliefs create a beautiful sight.
Il Proverbio Restaurant
A simple, traditional restaurant. Good food and good service. Great value for a meal.
Le Pergamene
A friendly restaurant with a medieval look offering great Sicilian-style pizzas. Overall the food is superb, and the deals are very good.
