    We visited Ortiga as part of a day trip from Taormina. We had a short stop at this place. You definitely need a guide or you will miss the highlights. I would like to stay there for a few days to see everything. Might do so in the future. A day trip is a long day.

    Syracuse, founded in 743 BC, is the filming location of The Beautiful Legend of Sicily. The Byzantine-style Syracuse Cathedral is a place where movie stars have walked calmly countless times. The square is crowded with people, and the melodious melody of the accordion seems to tell the rich and glorious history of Syracuse. I like the bright sunshine and humanistic feelings of Sicily.

    I saw this fountain while strolling along the beach nearby. It's not special. To be honest, I was too lazy to even take a photo with my phone. But we rented bicycles and rode around, especially along the beach. It was very interesting.
