#biketour My bike tour through Parco dei Nebrodi in Sicily was an absolute adventure! 🚴♂️ Nestled in northern Sicily, the park is a hidden gem with stunning mountain views and rich wildlife. Starting from the town of Cesarò, I cycled through dense forests, serene lakes, and rolling hills, all while breathing in the fresh mountain air. The entrance to the park is free, which is a huge bonus for nature lovers like me! The highlight was definitely Lago Maulazzo, a peaceful lake surrounded by towering trees, perfect for a short break. Wildlife spotting was also incredible—wild boars, eagles, and the Nebrodi horses were all around. I spent about five hours biking through different trails, with Mount Etna always in the background. It’s a fantastic spot for anyone who loves nature and wants to escape the touristy crowds of Sicily. #ParcoDeiNebrodi #SicilyAdventures #BikeTourSicily #NatureLoversParadise #MountEtnaViews #ExploreSicily

Opposite the city hall is the Strait of Messina, with a tall column of the statue of the Virgin Mary, which is the symbol of the port of Messina. So ILoveMessina is obviously what the government wants to see. MESSINA CITY HALL AND CITY COUNCIL, MUNICIPIO MEANS CITY HALL OR LOCAL GOVERNMENT (LATIN V TO U). It is also called Zanka Palace.#100WaysOfTravel Palazzo Zanca. The building was built in the 17th century and was also a neoclassical building rebuilt after two earthquakes in 1783 and 1908. It is said that some relics of the ancient Greek period can also be seen in the building. In a word, this place is the most pleasant place on the seaside of Messina.#islandtour #ancienttown #outdooradventures

White hexagonal rock pillars paired with crystal-clear river water, flowing quietly like blue bloodlines through the remnants of the fallen dragon. The greatest surprise of my trip to Sicily, Italy, was the magical Gole dell'Alcantara canyon. It was a hidden gem recommended by an old Sicilian colleague (a Frenchman with Sicilian parents) that I came to know about. The Alcantara Gorge (Gole dell'Alcantara) is located in the Alcantara Valley, nestled between the cities of Taormina and Randazzo on the island of Sicily. Rivers, waterfalls, pools, bizarre rocks, canyons, and greenery make it an ideal summer retreat for the locals! On the way to the canyon, you can also glimpse the mysterious remains of prehistoric castles (last two pictures), which are very interesting!

Tivoli is renowned for its beautiful gardens and impressive monuments, and the Fountain of Rometta is no exception.

The boat is surrounded by water that represents the Tiber River. The statue of Rome is celebrated for many virtues including justice, wisdom, fortitude, and piety. Surrounded by vegetation, its location brings surrealism to the scenery as something out of a Tolkien book – and that's just the beginning.

is the feeling of heart, Italy Taormina If there is a place to make people fall in love at first sight, I think it is Taormina. This small town facing the Ariad Sea was a colony of ancient Greece in 400 BC and now leaves a Greek theater ruins. It is romantic, rich, mellow and full of layers, and needs to be carefully understood. 400 BC Taormina was a colony of ancient Greece. In 212 BC, it was under the jurisdiction of the Roman Empire. The main location of Luc Besson's film "Blue Sea and Blue Sky" is in Taormina. French writer Maupassant said: "If someone can only stay in Sicily for a day, he asks: Where should I go to visit? I will answer him without hesitation, Taormina." Walk in the small town on the hill, the old street is a lively market, the beauty of the Mediterranean is full of sight, like the dream of oil painting, where you can see the beautiful town of Taormina and Egypt Turner Volcano. Taormina: Located in Sicily, Italy. main attraction: Greco Theater. The ancient city itself is an attraction.
