Historic Palermo has a series of historic buildings, although there is no magnificent appearance, but the Norman, Byzantine and Islamic three styles of buildings coexist, some buildings even have a strong Arab color.
Palermo is vast and rich, with a warm climate and beautiful scenery, rich in oranges, lemons and olives. Because of its good natural environment for the development of agriculture and forestry, it has been called "golden Basin land" in history.
The Norman Palace (Palazzo dei Normann), the oldest surviving royal palace in Europe, is located in the heart of Palermo's old town and is also a cultural card of Palermo.
This is the most beautiful Byzantine chapel in Palermo and is considered by many to be the most beautiful church in Sicily. The site of the palace dates back to the fifth century BC, and traces of the Punic people can be seen in the basement.
It was also used as a military defense facility during Arab rule. In 1072, when Palermo was ruled by the Normans, Norman King Roger II built a palace on the site of the original Arab ruins.
Only the Ruggero Hall and the Palatine Chapel remain as they were in Norman times. In both rooms you can admire the glittering gold Mosaic.
I'm going to Palermo again for this Gelato!
Although there are thousands of Italian Gelato, the best one is always the next one, but I think the two Gelato in Palermo with the little Red Book are very ordinary. This one is a Google Map brush when I passed by, and more than 2,000 people scored 4.9, but few people recommended the little Red book, so I decided to post an Amway ~
Located near Capo Market, Google search for Dolce Capo. The staff are very nice, although they don't speak much English but if you stare at a certain flavor for a few seconds you will dig out a spoonful to try, if you have thick skin you can try all the flavors
I tried five or six kinds of it, clear and refreshing and rich mouth are very delicious, creamy just right, rich mouth chocolate pistachio these tastes are not greasy. The Pistachio is the signature. There's a big pistachio in there. I liked both Mixed fruit and mango, but Melon was my favorite
No Cream, the whipped cream at Gelato in Italy seems to be all vegetable cream, very sweet and greasy. His brioche bread is also average, it feels like the kind of supermarket bag, but it is good to eat ice cream.
Don't miss this jewelry shop in Palermo
I didn't buy any souvenirs in Sicily, and I wasn't interested in fridge magnets. But!! I came across this souvenir jewelry store when I was shopping in Palermo by chance, and almost every piece has grown on my heart!!
Each piece has a special flavor of Sicily. There is also a small iconic logo of Sicily on the back of the bracelet or necklace ➕I Love Sicily, which is fantastic as a souvenir, OK? It not only has flavor, characteristics, but also functional value. I have no idea how to express my love for this store
And the bracelet is only 20 euros, and finally bought six hundred dollars of stuff directly from this store and took it back to give it away
