Italian holiday courses: Taormina, Italy

Hephaestus, Neptune and Typhon in the kingdom of the greats...

With its easy living, languor at every instant, culinary delights at every corner of th road, Taormina has always been and is still for a long time to come, this "corner of Paradise" which Goethe spoke of. Taormina dominates. From Letojani to Cape Passero, passing by Naxos and Syracuse. Taormina wants to be and knows that it is the most beautiful. The beauty is unquestionably a master component of this "St. Trop" proudly perched in the west coast of the "land with three points". The beauty of the sea, of the sky, of the haughty line of the mountains which follow the magnificently chiselled coasts. The beauty of a nature which does not murmur but lets its voice of striking colours, captivating perfumes and sumptous flavours be heard with force. A nature which has assisted with superb detachment at the long succession of crossed destinies. The Greeks built Doric temples and theatres on which the Romans supported their walls. The Arabs erected their walls on former acropolises and made delicious gardens shoot up which the Normans transformed into princely palaces. The Spanish came to add a final touch to the work by mixing new baroque spirals to the gothic façades. Since then, numerous traits of modern history have been added to the plural memory of Trikeles. Once again, all has changed and all has remained as before...of unparalleled beauty. When it's your turn, allow yourself to be charmed by the song of Venus Anodyomene...Da non perdere.
