Learn more about Palermo

Lose yourself in the chaotic beauty of ancient markets where vendors hawk exotic produce and street food with theatrical flair. The Arab-Norman architecture dazzles at every turn, especially in the Cappella Palatina with its jaw-dropping golden mosaics. Teatro Massimo offers cultural performances in a setting so grand it featured in 'The Godfather.' After sampling arancini from street carts, escape to Mondello Beach where locals perfect the art of stylish seaside lounging. The Vucciria and Ballarò markets pulse with centuries of Mediterranean commerce, while Quattro Canti marks the crossroads where the city's historic quarters meet. Come hungry - Palermo rewards those willing to embrace its beautiful chaos.
