Information about Palermo

This 2,700-year-old city is the capital of the Sicily region of Italy, located on the island of Sicily at the Gulf of Palermo on the Tyrrhenian Sea. It is one of the most populated cities in Italy and a popular tourist destination. Its mild Mediterranean weather welcomes visitors to enjoy its culture, music, art and food, as well as its spectacular architecture and famous nightlife.

One of the most visited sites in Palermo, surprisingly, is the tile museum, Stanze al Genio. Some of the city’s most important landmarks include the Church of Saint Francis of Assisi, the famous Triumph of Death Fresco, Palazzo Mirto, the Four Corners, and the Piazza Pretoria with its beautiful fountain.

La Kalsa is an enjoyable tourist hangout for drinking, eating, and listening to music, and visitors enjoy touring the Malox brewery. Nightlife in Palermo can be fun in places like the Berlin Café and the Scalea Dance Club.
