About Syracuse
Syracuse is the perfect spot to travel to: a gorgeous city, a relaxing one, where the coexistence and overlapping of cultures and styles and depth of Sicilian and Mediterranean history brightly spread out before the eyes of travellers, even the non art educated.The classical as well as the early Christian world, the life that Arabs and Jews spent in the city (the labyrinth of narrow streets that can suddenly widen out, the courtyards inside the oldhouses), the remains of Gothic, Catalan - and in any case, Spanish-type - architecture, every age indeed of Sicilian, Mediterranean and European, in a way which is suggestive, not isolated as monuments and traces of a forgotten world are, not remains of a past, the echo of which reaches historians only, but in a kind of vital fusion and continuity: as if everything mingled with everything else in the most complex and widest - although sudden - concept of Baroque.
