  1. Oneforall, allfor Green IPSSAR Paolo Borsellino

  2. Palermo, Museum of the Mediterranean: if you want to know what has passed on these blue waves, come to Palermo. It is a delicious city, a sweet city, a fragrant city. Her piazzas, her roads, her gardens, her monuments are magnificent. This is Sicily - nature's masterpiece, the center of the world, this illustrious land who's destiny is so moving and so mysterious." (Gabriel Hanotaux, noted diplomat from the French Academy, 1853-1944).

  3. Palermo is the capital and the chief seaport of Sicily. Including the province it has around 1,300,000 inhabitants and has about 200 Km of coastline. It is a busy and colourful city full of interesting squares and market places, churches and palazzos in every style, from Moorish to Baroque. The name Palermo derives from Greek Panormus and means all port. Maybe its origins are Phoenician-Punic but its best splendour had had under the Greeks. With the coming of the Romans the city had a period of decline that passed only during the Arabic period.

  4. The Gulf of Palermo View from Pellegrino Mount that Goethe, in its “Italian Journey” book, described as the most beautiful in the world.

  5. Pellegrino mountIt is a remarkable isolated mountain mass, rising to the height of 1950 feet above the sea, which washes its foot on the E. and N., while on the other two sides it rises abruptly from the plain of Palermo.A steep zigzag road has been constructed in modern times, leading up to the convent of Sta. Rosalia, near the summit of the mountain, a shrine now visited by crowds of pilgrims, whence the name of Monte Pellegrino. . The Utveggio, is a castle in Pellegrino mount. This castle was not a success story, was born as a hotel restaurant and then in the second world war became the headquarters for the Nazi soldiers. Today it's a master training site. .

  6. Pellegrino Mount is most famous for the Sanctuary of Saint Rosalie, located near the summit along winding roads that traverse woods of typically Mediterranean stone pines. Venerated for centuries, this medieval saint sought a hermit's life on Mount Pellegrino and many miracles were attributed to her. The feast of Saint Rosalie patroness of Palermo, is celebrated 13-15 July

  7. Favorita park This beautiful park at the foot of Pellegrino mount was created in 1799 by Ferdinand III of Bourbon when the napoleonic troops drove him out of Naples (where he had reigned as Ferdinand IV). It is the largest green area of the city of Palermo. The park was given to the king by noble Palermo families and became his private hunting estate. The park is rich of shady paths, little open spaces with beautiful fountains and benches, oil mill, storage basements. The thick wood was full of: pheasants, partrige, woodcock, rabbit, but today rabbits and migratory birds are still seen here occasionally.

  8. Into the park there is “the Chinesepalace” built in 1798/1802. It was the residence of the king Ferdinand IV. At the back of the chinese palace there was a beautiful and decorative garden built in the seventeenth French style: it was rich of orchards and vegetable gardens.

  9. Villa Giulia Thisvast garden wasdesigned in the 18th century and contains a fine Fountainby Ignazio Marabitti(1780) surroundedbyfourexedrae (largeniches). The samesculptorwasresponsiblefor the fountaintoppedby the “Genio di Palermo” (spiritof Palermo) thatyou can see on the way to the nearbaybotanical garden. The heart of the villa is the dodecahedron fountain, featuring a sculpture of a dodecahedral marble clock created by the mathematician Lorenzo Federici, each face of the dodecahedron featuring a sundial. This is supported by a statue of Atlas by IgnazioMarabitti, set in the centre of a circular fountain.

  10. VillaNiscemi Currently serving as Palermo's City Hall, this beautiful villa was home to the Niscemi family for over 3 centuries. In 1987, the house was taken over by the city and converted into the mayor's abode. The interior has been preserved -- paintings, furniture, frescoes, and other objects bringing to life a time of the past. The terraces expose beautiful garden views as well

  11. Villa Malfitano One of Palermo's great villa palaces, built in the Liberty style, sits within a spectacular garden. The villa was constructed in 1886 by Joseph Whitaker -- grandson of the famous English gentleman and wine merchant, Ingham, who moved to Sicily in 1806 and made a fortune producing Marsala wine. Whitaker had trees shipped to Palermo from all over the world to plant around his villa. These included such rare species as Dragon's Blood, an enormous banyan tree that happens to be the only one found in Europe. Local high society flocked here for lavish parties, and even George V and Queen Mary of England visited

  12. Villa Lanza di Trabia Villa Tasca is located on the road from Palermo to Monreale, in a 20 acre park full of citrus orchards and majestic century-old trees. While the Villa was originally built in the 1500ds, the oasis which protects it is one of Sicily's most emblematic Victorian-era Romantic gardens. The curvilinear stone-bordered pathways and the lush tropical vegetation carry one away into a rich world of silence and suggestion. These more thickly planted areas are complemented by English lawns that allow the garden to be experienced with lightness and simplicity, even during every-day activities.

  13. Botanical garden It is an exotic botanical garden that inspired Wagner‘s Parsifal. It is one of the most important botanical gardens in Europe.

  14. Botanical garden

  15. The Botanical Garden has occupied its present site since 1789 and contains a huge range of species, including oriental and exotic plants, such as the majestic “Dendrocalamus giganteus” or the incredible “Ficus magnoloides”. Chorisia speciosa

  16. Victoria cruziana

  17. AcquariumA large circular pool divided into 24 segments, obtained by dividing radially three concentric sectors into 8 parts, is home to many aquatic species.

  18. The town hall The Praetorian Palace, also known as the Palace of the Eagles, is located in Piazza Pretoria, on the border district of Kalsa, near Quattro Canti, Palermo. It is actually the seat of the city hall of Palermo. It was built in the fourteenth century. Transformations and reconstructions followed during the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries transformed the building into a sort of encyclopedia of architectural styles.

  19. Piazza Pretoria or Piazza of Shame The square coincides in practice with the magnificent fountain of the same name created in the mid-16° century by Francesco Camillani. Naked pagan divinities cavort among the pure white Mannerist statues, the reason for the name Fontana della Vergogna (of Shame) by which it is still known today but without any trace of censure, in a playful spirit.

  20. The church was erected in 1185 by Gualtiero Offamilio, the Anglo-Norman archbishop of Palermo , on the area of an earlier Byzantine basilica. By all accounts this earlier church was founded by St. Gregory and was later turned into a mosque by the Saracens after their conquest of the city in the 9th century. Offamilio is buried in a sarcophagus in the church's crypt.  Frederick II , whose  reign represents one of Palermo's Golden ages, is also buried in the Cathedral The Cathedral

  21. Quattro canti Visitors to the old town can start from Piazza Vigliena, or rather the Quattro Canti, once also known as Teatro del Sole, a perfect name for this urban stage set adorned with statues, niches and balusters. The piazza, where Via Maqueda and Corso Vittorio Emanuele intersect ( the cornerstones of the old city), was designed at the beginning of the 17 th century by Giulio di Lasso and was the first nucleus of the great baroque city.

  22. Known for its distinctive red domes, the small Chiesa di San Cataldo is a 12th-century Norman church standing next door to La Martorana. It was founded by Maio of Bari, chancellor to William I, during the Norman occupation in 1154. After Maio died in 1160, the interior was never completed. San Cataldo church

  23. Church of San Domenico The Basilica of San Domenico (St. Dominic) is a fine example of Sicilian Baroque and is also known for the many prominent Sicilians laid to rest in it. San Domenico's landmark is the obelisk-like "Colonna dell' Immacolata" in the piazza in front of the basilica. The church is noted for its facade, designed and built in 1726 by Tommaso Maria Napoli. You can see, inside, the tombs of several Sicilians of national prominence. Francesco Crispi, the first prime minister of a united Italy, is buried here.

  24. Santa Maria della Catena The Church of Santa Maria della Catena (St. Mary's of the Chain) takes its name from the huge chain that was strung across the water here to bar entrance to the "Cala," the interior part of Palermo's harbor. This practice originated during the Middle Ages, when raids by Turkish corsairs and other assorted pirates were not uncommon. The Church was erected in the late 1400s, designed by Matteo Carnelivari in what is best described as a mixture of late Gothic and early Renaissance styles.

  25. Politeama Theatre Built in neoclassical style, which was in vogue at the end of the Eighteen Hundreds, the Politeama Theatre illuminates the Piazza which shares its name. Designed as a "polytheama", or performance space for a variety of shows, its role in Palermo was to be as central to social life. Equestrian exhibitions, gymnastics, acrobatics, operettas, plays, and social festivities were to be held and seen there. Just before the Politeama was built, moral in Palermo was low after an epidemic of cholera. The city needed a boost, and the authorities, already in favour of building a people's theatre, encouraged construction despite budget restrictions. In fact it was completed thirty years before the operatic, more aristocratic Theatre Massimo.

  26. Massimo Theatre Itisoneof the largesttheatres in Europe (7730mq ). A neoclassicalmasterpiece startedby Giovanni Battista Basile in 1875 and completedbyhissoon Ernesto in1897

  27. Porta Nuova New Gate at Palermo, known in Italian language as “PortaNuova”, is a structure placed at the beginning of the main street called “Cassaro”. It was built in 1535 by the will of viceroy Marcantonio Colonna, to celebrate the coming of Charles V into the city of Palermo. He was coming from the battle of Tunis, as winner obviously. Underneath a pyramid-shaped roof, four Moorish statues support the gate. These represent the Moors defeated by Charles V in his war on the Ottoman Empire. For centuries it has been the only way to enter into the city of Palermo.

  28. Street markets VUCCIRIA CAPO In these markets you can buy almost everything, from meat, to vegetables and fish; most of all you can purchase a lot of products typical of Sicilian cooking. What really is amazing is that you can also enjoy yourself just by looking at the typically Arabic bargaining between customers and sellers, to obtain the best price! BORGO VECCHIO BALLARO’

  29. Mondello Charleston It is the symbol of Mondello, the striking Art Nouveau building on a pier in the middle of the bay. Mondello is a small seaside resort with a wonderful beach just a short bus ride from the centre. Mondello is more or less a suburb of the city, and excursions to the sea at Mondello are a ritual for Palermitani.

  30. Mondello The coastline at Mondello used to be marshy and plagued by malaria. It was only at the end of the nineteenth century that the land was subject to improvement schemes; by the early twentieth century a Belgian company began developing property, and wealthy residents of Palermo started buying up the new, elegant 'Liberty-style' villas by the beach.

According to the tradition they eat arancine and cuccia Arancina is a specialty of sicilian cuisine; it’s a deep-fried rice ball of 8-10 cm of diametre Its name derives from the shape and the typical colour of an orange. The most popular arancine are filled with meat sauce and peas or with butter, ham and mozzarella cheese, sometimes bechamel is added too. In Catania arancine are also filled with aubergine and tomato sauce ( Norma style) or with pistachio from Bronte. There are many other types of arancine made with different ingredients : mushrooms,, salmon, chicken, vegetarian. You also can find sweet arancine sugar-coated with chocolate filling or black cherry cream.

  34. The cuccìa Cuccia is a traditional cooked wheat dish, served only on St. Lucy's day in Sicilian households. Santa Lucia is honored in every town in Sicily. On her feast day they observe a “no pasta, no bread” rule and cuccia is made in all the towns. The tradition comes from a time when during a famine, the people of Syracuse prayed for the intercession of St. Lucy. A ship arrived laden with grain. People were so eager to eat that they boiled the wheat without waiting for it to be ground and ate it simply dressed with olive oil. This was the first Cuccia; nowadays cuccia is also made with sweet ricotta cheese or with chocolate Cream.

  35. Fruits of MartoranaFruits of Martoranahave a medieval origin. They are typical sicilian pastries famous in the world. According the original recipe, these pastries are made of almond flour and sugar(marzipan). Their name originates from the convent of Martorana in Palermo where the nuns prepared these coloured sweets shaped to resemble various fruits and vegetables for All Saints’day and adorned the convent during the Pope’s visit

  36. The cassata siciliana Cassata is a traditional sicilian cake made with ricotta cheese (it’s a soft sheep cheese), sugar, a layer of sponge cake, and candied fruit. It is included in the traditional italian food farming list. Its origin dates back to the arab and norman period ; in Sicily the Arabs brought sugar cane , almond, lemon, cedar, tangerine and bitter orange. All these ingredients and the ricotta cheese were the main ingredients of the cassata in a baked shortcrust pastry. During the Norman period, in the monastery of Martorana in Palermo, the nuns created some pastries made of almond flour and sugar, green coloured with estract of herbs and replaced the baked shortcrust pastry; they created the cold cassata. The Spanish brought chocolate and their sponge cake; during the baroque period candied fruits were also added in the cassata.
