Discover Siracusa and Ragusa
Siracusa, declared a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 2005, is renowned for its vast historical, archaeological, cultural, and anthropological significance. This unique city boasts a historical center on the enchanting island of Ortigia.
Ragusa, part of the Val di Noto UNESCO World Heritage site, has 18 buildings under UNESCO protection. This city of two souls features a modern area and an ancient Baroque-style area called Ibla. Its maze of narrow streets, filled with churches and palaces, attracts many visitors, while an ethereal beauty creates a magical atmosphere.
