Take a trip to Sicily and visit Palermo, Italy, a region of Italy refined by its history, art, culture food and architecture. There are so many things to do in Palermo that you'll have no trouble occupying yourself with many worthwhile activities. If you're already certain about visiting Palermo, flights to Palermo are easy to come by and extraordinarily cheap on the Flighthub website.
Start your trip off with a trip to a castle and now the home of parliament. The former King of Sicily, King Roger II's humble abode in the 12th century, the castle is a favorite amongst tourists. Come and see the magnificent Arab-Norman external architecture, a gorgeous internal chapel and brilliant mosaics inside.
Prepared to meet 800 of Palermo's wealthiest citizens? Now what if I told you that they were dead? If you're someone who likes to visit Catacombs, than the Catacombe dei Cappuccini is the place for you. Many of the skeletons are in different stages of being mummified, and one of the highlights of the experience is seeing Rosalia Lombardo. Although she died nearly 100 years ago (in 1920,) she looks exactly as if she was sleeping. This tour is not for the faint of heart, but is a fascinating experience for those who fancy the macabre. Tip: Please note that the Catacomb closes between 1-3 p.m. for lunch, so plan your trip accordingly.
If you'd like to see a lovely, 13th century church of old, than the Church of San Francesco of Assisi is an excellent place to view Gothic and Romanesque architecture. Although a little bit demure on the outside, the inside is filled to the brim with interesting architectural features, not to mention paintings. A UNESCO World Heritage site, this church also has a beautiful Capella Manstrantonio arch.
Come and visit the 'Fountain of Shame,' otherwise known as Fontant Pretoria. Purchased in 1575, the Fountain was notoriously dubbed the 'Fountain of Shame,' by churchgoers. The fountain features nudes and mythological characters, which were apparently too much for the locals to take in.
If you're partial to shopping, than Flightthub has the best tip that you'll find: visit the Vucciria Market! It's one of the best markets for those on a tight budget and is a market over 650 years old. The market is famous for its replica goods (Italy is the home of the most famous and most designers in the world, after all,) as well as handicrafts, meats, cheeses, spices and produce. It's a great place to walk around, do a bit of shopping and take in the local culture.
