Sicily is the largest island in Italy and in the Mediterranean, an amazing country rich in history and tradition, where art and culture intertwine with natural resources. Most of this has been included in UNESCO's list. It consists of nine provinces, including Palermo, which is also the capital of the region. Mount Etna and Stromboli, the Aeolian Islands as well as a number of other parks and nature reserves, numerous remains of Greek, Roman, Norman, Arab, Catalan and other cultures that alternated in the rule of the island, well-preserved architectural heritage, museums and galleries that preserve masterpieces works of world art, all this is the reason that Sicily, although it also offers classic Mediterranean bathing tourism, thanks to the mild climate, clean sea and endless beaches, it also offers something more. On this island, the tourist is able to experience the history of many different periods, to see one of the few remaining active volcanoes in Europe. Thanks to the mixing of cultures and influences, Sicily offers a rich gastronomic and enogastronomic offer. In Sicily, religious rites and traditional rites associated with social and working life coexist.
