Highlights
-
Palazzina dei Quattro Pizzi - I will tell you about its origins and curiosities related to the very famous Florio family who lived there for many years. If you wish, by agreeing previously, you can visit it from the inside but by paying a ticket of 6 euros per person and only on weekends.
Inside the building, the Art Nouveau decorations and a small museum dedicated to the Florio family are of major importance. - Mondello - I will tell you how one of the most beautiful beaches in the world was born, Mondello beach, we will see the restaurant on the sea with Liberty architecture, the watchtower, the marina and the square with the characteristic little mermaid fountain. You will walk in the heart of the Palermo summer.
- Parco della Favorita - It will be possible to visit two noble residences for free and will require the use of a mask. I will take you to visit the largest park in the city and show you its peculiarities from the end of the 18th century. In fact, the residence of Ferdinand IV of Bourbon and the villa of the Valguarnera princes is present and can be visited for free.

Additional Information
This is an incomparable journey that I have thoughtfully crafted, as it directs you to explore nearly untouched and challenging locations for a voyager opting for public transportation. A metropolis like Palermo, which seemingly only unveils the charm of the historic center’s monuments, actually has a lot more to bestow with a modest excursion outside the city.
- Comfortable clothing is recommended for short walks, step by step
Location
Porta Nuova
Via Vittorio Emanuele
