IMPRESSIVE BACKDROP
Taormina- a 1000 years of history, irresistible charm, unforgettable hospitality and undoubtedly one of Italy’s most beautiful towns. Taormina clings to the impressive cliff base of Monte Tauro high above the sea, with the smoke rising from Mount Atna in the background. The Corso Umberto is the most important promenade and orientation point in the town. From the Porta Messina, it is almost a 1 km walk to the Porta Catania through the medieval town centre, past the Piazza 9 Aprile, Taormina’s most beautiful open-air terrace with a view far out along the coast. Countless shops, trattorias, pizzerias and restaurants line the road, which can barely contain the crowds in high summer. If you prefer things somewhat quieter, you can wander off into one of the many small side streets, where you can still find a leafy place to sit and genuine, typically Sicilian shops.
ROUGH COASTAL SCENERY
Masses of lava in fantastic shapes and fine grained sand complete the picture around the deep blue of the Mediterranean and invite visitors to stay awhile and swim. Since Sicily established its reputation as a classic travel destination, every traveller has gone through Taormina. Even a short visit leaves every visitor with an impression of the town’s unique charm.
