Sicily - fabulous sunny island, famous for its citrus groves and powerful volcano"Etna", which is several times larger than Vesuvius. Every morning locals they start by raising their heads towards the crater - if there is white smoke, then the day will go well, and if it is gray, then this is a warning about a possible eruption. Sicily bathes immediately in three seas: Ionian, Tyrrhenian and Mediterranean. And it's for real beach paradise for fans of imposing rest.
Sicily - volcanic island, located at the very nose of the "Italian boot", south of Italy. Separates it from the mainland Strait of Messina. Moreover, Sicily is also largest region country, capturing in addition to the island in its possession of 5 peninsulas adjacent to it.

In Palermo, there is a metro consisting of a blue and a red line. To be honest, it looks more like electric trains, since the subway has never known any special funding.
In Sicily, it is better to use buses than trains. Since the latter run along the entire coast of the island, which is very time consuming.
Significant sights of Palermo include the Palatine Chapel, Villa Palagonia and Botanical Garden. Mount Etna belongs to the outskirts of Catania.
Sicily today is the only region of Italy that has its own parliament, located in the capital of the island - the city of Palermo. Administratively, the region is divided into 9 provinces. The relief of the island is mountainous - almost 91% of its territory is covered mountain ranges mostly of volcanic origin. To the north lie the heavily dissected ranges of the Peloritan Mountains (Peloriti), Nebrodi and Le Madonie, which are part of the Apennine Peninsula system.
The history of Sicily is a series of conquests by barbarians, Byzantines, Arabs, Normans, French, Spaniards, Austrians. Sicily became part of the Italian Kingdom only in 1860. Since 1946 the island has been autonomous region. The climate of Sicily is typically Mediterranean, with hot summers and short, mild winters.
Sicily is enough inexpensive resort, which since the appearance of the film "The Godfather" has successfully maintained the reputation of the most "mafia" place in Italy. The name of the rare restaurant or bar here is not related to the famous trilogy. This is the "criminality" of Sicily and is limited: the rest here is safe and fun.
