The Park Museum “Jalari” is situated on the Peloritan mountains a few kilometers from Barcellona Pozzo di Gotto (ME) extended over 35 hectares (350,000 msq). “Jalari” originates from a dream and grows with perseverance and constancy due to 30 years of work from 2 local families. It is difficult to synthesize in a few words what were the values, the culture and the spirit that animated the authors of the Park in these long, intensive and happy years of activity. Therefore, we let the good mood of everyone to discover the mysteries that surround the park museum of "Jalari". During the visit participants had the opportunity to experience a part of Sicilian culture within a folk music concert of a local band called “Sarva la Pezza” and we concluded the day by testing Sicilian “pane e panelle”. Messina Messina is known as the door of Sicily. With its port, shaped like a sickle, it has always been a trading city. Situated close to the Peninsular, there has been busy thoroughfare between Messina and the Mainland, over the centuries. Messina has several churches, monuments and fountains that date back centuries that are worthy of exploration. The myriad of churches, monuments and buildings adorned with fine art is staggering. The Duomo’s Square (Piazza del Duomo) is well worth your attention, as it sites on the main square in Messina and offers an awesome visit to its interior, a real visit to be remembered. Milazzo Milazzo is a substantial town on the coast of north-east Sicily, west of Messina, and best known (and most visited) for its beach and historic village. The town itself is interesting - the centuries have left their mark very clearly on the layout of Milazzo, with the walled city at the top of Milazzo, the "Old Town" of medieval origin at the foot of the hill, and the more modern city at the bottom and along the harbor area. The Old Town includes the fortified citadel and medieval quarters of Milazzo, and contains numerous religious buildings. The lower town is the most recent part of Milazzo, and was built in the 18th century. The center of lower Milazzo revolves around the Piazza Caio Duilio, which is flanked to the west by the Palazzo Marchese Proto and to the east of the “Chiesa del Carmine”, with a lintel carved with garlands and a niche with a statue of Our Lady of Consolation".

Settled on a hill of the Monte Tauro, Taormina dominates two grand, sweeping bays below and on the southern side, the top of Mount Etna, the European highest active volcano, often capped with snow, offering to the visitors a breathtaking, dramatic and memorable view over... Taormina is a medieval village perched alongside the steep terrain jutting out of the ocean. While it has kept its Medieval character, it is now a shopper's paradise. Near the top of Taormina Village is a wonderfully preserved Roman Theater. This pretty much sums up Taormina's charm. There is something for everyone. Great shopping, wonderful restaurants, Roman Ruins, Medieval pedestrian streets and even stairs to a great beach. Tindari The village of Tindari, on Sicily’s northeast coast, has two sites — and sights — that make a visit to this otherwise average Sicilian village worth the trip. One, the Santuario di Tindari, is a place of pilgrimage; the other, Tyndaris, is the ruins of a Greek-Roman settlement. Fascinating is the Archaeological Park, with the ruins of the ancient Roman settlement of Greek Tindarys and the beautiful Greek theater overlooking the sea.
