About Messina
& Taormina
Since the end of the nineteenth
century Taormina has become a world famous international resort
whose visitors are, time and time again, enraptured by its charming
atmosphere, its natural beauty, its all-year-round mild climate,
its preservation of local culture and ancient history. Settled
on a hill of the Monte Tauro, Taormina dominates two grand, sweeping
bays below and on the southern side, the top of Mount Etna. Of
interest are The Greek-Roman Theatre, the second-largest in Sicily
after the one in Siracusa, the archaeological museum, the Odeon,
Corvaia Palace and the ruins of Naumachia.
