If you do not go to Sicily when you go to Italy, people would say that you have not been to Italy yet because it is only in Sicily that you can find the source of beauty in Italy. Gus expressed the above meaning when he came here for his first time on 13th, April in 1787 in order to search for the root of western culture. It is the truth. This island which is the biggest in the Mediterranean Sea and also is the biggest province in Italy is really a piece of artful land. Here the charming nature scenery and the human scenery get along very well in harmony. Many peoples such as the Greek, the Roman, the Arab, and the Spanish and so on live here in all ages. Their civilizations are left here and show the harmonious life.
Seen from the map, Sicily is the football which is on the boot-like land of Italy that runs out into the Mediterranean Sea. It is in the center of the Mediterranean Sea with mild climate and beautiful scenery. Here is rich in oranges, lemons and olive growing. No matter on the east coast or on the west coast, there are orange gardens, lemon gardens with heaps of fruit and vast forest of olive. People call it “golden basin” for its good environment for developing the agriculture and the forestry.
Rich land can not avoid being overridden by the great powers. The original dominator of this island is Sicily people. Up to the eighth century, The Greek found the important colony. The temples and theater sites which remain in good condition become the most famous scenic spots in the island. Rome Empire makes it the first province. The Arab brings abundant product here such as the oranges, the lemons, the melon, the pistachio and of new type of wheat. The Norman influence can be seen from the castles, the cathedral and the blue eyes. During the time for several centuries, the nobles of Spain and Austria begin their exploration from the palace built in Palermo. At the early of this century, the Mafia became the last dominator of the island.
Sicily has a vast area. There are three best places. The first one is the capital city of Palermo. It is convenient to the sites of Monreale or Segesto in outskirts from here. The second one is Catania which is appraised as “Milan in south Italy”. The Italian composer Bernini was born here. Also, the small mountain city of Taormina is in its north and Siracusa in south. The third one is Agrigento where the temple vale with the fame of “house for God” is absolutely worth a visit.
