Travel Tuesday

Taormina, Sicily Part Two
Pictures of Taormina continued from the previous Travel Tuesday Post.

Taormina is full of hidden secrets with tiny passages to fantastic restaurants.



The most famous sight is the antique Roman-Greek theatre which is the second largest in Sicily, in the summer there are also many concerts.



Amazing views all around the theatre. Such a sight to see.

Of course Sicily is the home of the MAFIA and is known for the God Father movies. We had the pleasure of visiting the Bar Vitelli, which was filmed in the first movie, and meeting the owner, Maria D’Arrigo. It was a like a little museum of God Father pictures, articles, etc.
